Creative Environments for Team and Collaborative Learning

collaborative desks for learning

As history would demonstrate, the Paragon guys were educated while sitting at the back of the classroom.  Since we spent so many years looking at the rows of furniture between us and our teachers, it was destiny that we would end up making educational furniture as adults.

The days of fixed rows of combo desks will hopefully be a scene of the past.  Learning time is valuable and the need to engage students and offer educators flexibility with classroom management is key.  That is why Paragon believes that the solution is INTUitIVE.

LEARN-IT, COLLABORATE-IT and TEAM-IT desks  can be used to develop creative learning environments for students and teachers alike.  Students of all ages and sizes can connect to the lesson plan in more ergonomic postures when used with the right seating.  Thanks to the innovative shapes of COLLABORATE-IT and TEAM-IT, students can be placed together in groups of two or more to share and encourage each other during the learning process.

A classroom that sits in rows for testing can easily be rearranged to adapt the environment and get ALL students involved in the learning process. No longer will a student get lost in the back of the class.

As I like to say, your SAT score can be affected by where you SAT.  Classroom management will no longer be limited by the furniture and educators will be able to focus on the job of investing their time into the next great generation.

Now imagine, if the Paragon guys had INTUitIVE furniture when they were in school?  You would be buying furniture from a doctor, a lawyer and…. hmmm…. a very well educated PhD rock star.
