 | | In my experience, this desk could literally make the difference between a passing and a failing grade (when I have placed students who lacked comfortable seating, or were relegated to sit in desks only available at the back of a large classroom, at full, well-located desks, their scores improved one letter grade). |
 | | Historically, school systems and universities have either (a) failed to understand the serious problems associated with biased classroom desks or (b) assumed that purchasing a certain percentage (5%-20%) left-biased desks was adequate. |
 | | If left-biased desks are to be found, they are most often poorly located, along one side or in the back of the room, effectively denying left-handers the right to sit where they choose. |
