Lewis comments on stand-up classroom

LewisBeth Lewis, assistant professor in the School of Kinesiology, was quoted today in an article on an innovative classroom for elementary students in Marine on St. Croix. Kids in this classroom have "stand-up workstations" where they can stand or sit on high stools. Beth will be studying how many more calories students will burn at their workstations compared to being seated at traditional desks.
