My Project

I would like to get my students some seat cushions. I realized that a new office chair for my own body would make me feel better, and when I feel better, I teach better. I think the same could be said for my students.

Students have challenges of their own that affect their personal comfort.

I think that cushions could help them feel more comfortable. There is a lot of research that employees are more productive when more comfortable, so I feel it makes sense students would learn more too.
