A "study carrel" environment is a tried and true process to increase student focus"
One of the small pleasures in life is to find a quiet spot, relax in a comfortable chair and read a book. There are
those among us, however, that do not require the solitude or quiet. They can read in a busy airport or in a noisy
restaurant. Chances are, most people have a preference about which environment they desire for maximum
enjoyment of the written word. In a school setting, students should have the same choice.
All students are familiar with the library and know the importance placed on “quiet” in this area. What may come
as a surprise to educators is that librarians are privy to inside information about the environment within the
library. The secret is this – study carrels. All public libraries and institutions of higher learning offer these quiet
zone areas for reading and study. They spend large amounts of money to provide these individualized spaces
because they are extremely effective for learning.
Dr. Arthur W. Hafner, Dean of University Libraries at Ball State University, states, “[Our libraries offer a large
number of study tables and comfortable chairs throughout for both individual and collaborative study. Some are
in large open spaces and surrounded by other study tables. Others are arranged in groups of two or three, and
some carrels stand-alone for private or small group use. Informal questioning of students reveals that they enjoy
studying, learning, and collaborating in an environment where others are doing the same.”
During a student’s early years in kindergarten, elementary and middle school it is vital that they develop strong
reading and language skills. Most libraries at these levels only offer large tables or desks, mostly due to budget
constraints. ClassroomProducts.com has the solution with their inexpensive, portable study carrels. Kenny Kiskis
from ClassroomProducts.com states, “Libraries have used study carrels for years knowing their capability of
keeping noise levels down, and giving user’s privacy and a better environment for focusing on their work.”
Regardless of the grade level, students should have study carrel spaces to read and learn. In the library setting
this is particularly important to fostering a love of books and a feeling of success during the reading process. The
study carrels offered by ClassroomProducts.com will match the needs of the learners and the budget of school.
