Description
The author is co-founder and president of Kay-Twelve.com, a leading national distributor of education furniture. His book offers a practical guide to help educators utilize classroom furniture to adapt to each student's learning style, walking through the proven process that many schools around the world have implemented to impact student learning environments. Most of it is devoted to classrooms, but it also looks at a school as a facility of learning opportunities in each square foot -- inside and outside of the building. Not all schools have the opportunity to start a new facility from scratch or undergo major renovations, so the focus is mainly on showing how to better utilize and enhance an existing facility. It begins and ends with the primary purpose of matching a student's environments with his or her dominant learning styles.
