SANTA FE SPRINGS, Calif. - Californer -- McDowell-Craig, an American-made furniture company, announced today the publication of their latest blog post. Titled "Why a Jigsaw Table Is Ideal for Collaborative and Interactive Learning," the article explores the advantages of the desk's unique configuration in classroom settings.

With its long, wide surface, the jigsaw table can accommodate several students, giving each plenty of space to do their own work while also allowing for collaboration on group projects. This makes the table jigsaw configuration a favorite among teachers who often ask their students to complete assignments together. The layout is also great for students and can even enhance academic performance. This is because dividing a large classroom into much smaller groups and having students work together lends to a more engaging and interactive learning process.

As if that weren't advantageous enough, the jigsaw tables from McDowell-Craig are especially popular among educators because of their incredible functionality and durability. With their welded frame chassis, they can withstand decades of heavy use. What's more, their all-over work surface support means they'll never sag under the weight of heavy books or computers.

As for the actual shape of the jigsaw table, it supports peer-to-peer learning by accommodating small groups comfortably. Check out the blog post to see how teachers can make the most of this layout. McDowell-Craig shares four simple steps for getting students started on joint activities after dividing them up into groups of four or five.

At the end of the day, jigsaw tables are a sound investment for learning institutions that cater to students of all ages. With the right approach, educators can use this desk configuration to encourage students to take a more active role in the learning process. When students work together, more often than not they end up teaching one another. Consequently, they're more inclined to remember the material, which yields better test scores all around.
