Older students, who are also developing physically, mentally, and emotionally, are not prompted to interact with their space in the same way as when they were younger. This ultimately leads to a regression in classroom design and resorts to more traditionally styled space that is linear in configuration.  These traditional settings shift the focus away from the student and learning, and back to the teacher; however, shifting the focus of the classroom to the teacher does not benefit the students at any age and students ultimately need to move and wiggle while they learn to better enhance the quality of their learning. Allowing students to use wobble cushions will allow for them to utilize uncharted areas in the room, access their sensory organs and channel their focus more prominently into the productivity of their work. Students want to achieve new heights and they want to do their best, and they are capable of doing so.
