The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility of sit-to-stand desks in a middle school classroom. Participants used sit-to-stand desks during health class. Momentary time sampling was used for physical activity and behavioral observations. Results indicate students sat 37%, stood 59%, and walked 4% of the time. Misbehaviors occurred 4% of the observed period. The following themes emerged: focus, freedom, distractions, and design. Sit-to-stand desks appear to encourage standing during instruction while simultaneously limiting misbehaviors. Students indicated some distractions but were generally positive toward desk implementation and suggested they supported learning behaviors. The teacher echoed most of the student themes.
本研究的目的是探讨在中学教室使用升降桌的可行性。参与者在健康课上使用升降桌。采用瞬间时间抽样法进行身体活动和行为观察。结果表明，学生们在上课期间37%的时间坐着，59%的时间站着，4%的时间在走动。在观察期间，不当行为出现的比例为4%。出现了以下几个主题：专注、自由、干扰和设计。升降桌似乎在鼓励教学期间站立，同时限制不当行为。学生们表示存在一些干扰，但总体上对使用升降桌持积极态度，并表示它们有助于学习行为。教师也认同学生提出的大部分主题。
