Giving students voice and choice with regard to where work is completed, makes a huge impact on their engagement and ability to concentrate and work effectively. By allowing students the choice to work seated at a traditional desk, or in one of the flexible seating choices provides them with ownership of their choice, and I have found that productivity increases.
