5.This article is also about the mayo clinic's plan to create a classroom of the "future" by eliminating desks in the classroom and have the students move around the classroom while learning vs sitting most of the day. Which in turn will help diminish the problem of obesity in children. The classrooms will have standing desks and sophisticated learning technologies such as, wireless notebooks. They are conducting a study with fourth and fifth graders that will be moved from their traditional classrooms after a week and sent to the "school of the future". a team from the Mayo clinic called the 'Mayo team" will monitor the students through pads placed on them that measure how long they have been standing and walking. Results are pending. http://www.therapytimes.com/content=5701J64E48B68A841
