Improving ergonomics through smart adjustments in educational and cultural facilities.
The classroom is the workplace for teachers and a place for students to learn. An ergonomically designed setting is essential for creating an environment that supports learning and health.
The choice of furniture is important. This means that the whole individual (age, size, ease of movement) needs to be considered. Research has shown that particularly for children, who need to expend energy, being stationary can limit concentration. Furthermore, children grow rapidly, and it is rare for their body size to remain unchanged for long periods. Therefore, stationary furniture is generally not suitable for children. Dynamic workstations adapt to the body size and mobility of everyone. With adjustable height elements, anyone can easily concentrate and find an ergonomically sound position that maximizes comfort. Height-adjustable desks allow for standing work. This has a positive impact on energy levels. Additionally, it has been proven that standing up several times a day can reduce fatigue and musculoskeletal disorders (especially neck stiffness and lower back pain). This is a factor that cannot be ignored, especially when it is known that classes can be stressful for students. Therefore, it is recommended to provide flexible equipment that allows for alternating between sitting and standing postures, enabling physical and intellectual agility.
