My Project

Mobile furniture design is flexible in functionality and so serves multiple purposes. It can facilitate the energy and curiosity of learners of all ages and adapt to suit projects of any nature; it can be adjusted to accommodate students of varying heights, accessibility needs, and physical attributes; it can be folded for easy storage; and it can do so much more to introduce active learning to the classroom and benefit students and their teachers.

Classroom furniture that is creatively designed and encourages participation and movement is proving to be the most effective way to instill young learners with optimism about the lifelong learning process they have ahead of them.

This desk is going to allow me to use it for classroom presentations, or for a student who needs to stand during class. This desk will also help my English Language Learners become more confident speaking in the classroom.
