My students need a WorkFit desk to have a chance to get their heart rates up during the long, sedentary school day. Our health classes would use this for projects when we analyze heart rate. The desk would be part of our everyday seating chart. I would place kids who need greater sensory stimulation in this desk for everyday use. This bike would help all learners but more specifically kinesthetic learners and students with ADHD. If we had this bike, the kids who cannot sit still would not have to. This bike would benefit students not only physically but academically. Many schools who have implemented bike desks have seen an increase in reading proficiency. Exercise has been shown to increase verbal memory (short and long-term) and creativity. Pedaling on the bike decreases distractibility and improves working memory. As an added bonus, students would be having fun!
