Students often use the typical boring classroom setting to catch up on their sleep when the teacher isn't looking, but Verb by Steelcase hopes to change that tired mentality. Although they shouldn't have been up all night playing video games or perusing Facebook, the classroom encourages such educational neglect. Verb by Steelcase is a set of furniture that makes learning more interactive, thus keeping students and teacher on their toes.
Although Verb by Steelcase is comprised of tweaked furniture pieces, the star of the collection is a set of interchangeable whiteboards that can attach to the student's desk, rolling easel or teacher's station. By encouraging a more fluid form of teaching, which static furniture often inhibited, teachers will be able to encourage more engagement from their pupils.
