Teacher Podiums, also known as teacher lecterns, are utilized by educators in upper-grade levels, such as high school and university levels. They act as a secondary desk for teachers to use while they are in front of the class teaching and presenting information to students.
Podiums in the Classroom
Podiums in the classroom are a great tool for anyone using them, whether that be teachers or students. Teachers use podiums to hold their teaching materials while they are at the front of the class, presenting. They can easily place laptops, books, and other teaching materials on the lectern to reference during their lessons. These stands also get teachers up and out of their chairs throughout the day. They act as their standing desk and force them to be on their feet. This can help improve their posture and give them more energy as they are not sitting down all day. Students can also use a lecture podium when participating in class presentations and discussions. It prompts students to stand up tall and gives them a place to set their flashcards for a presentation. It also keeps them on track as they are talking, helping them not to get distracted as their notes and materials are right there on the desktop.
