Study center

Abstract

The study center is a unique, multi-folded sheet constructed of rigid panels that shields a student's work from others in the classroom during testing and other activities. The center is made of rigid card stock or plastic {fraction (1/16)} of an inch thick that is laminated. This invention is portable and replaces the large, expensive, and isolated study carrels used in an educational setting. The study center allows students with Attention-Deficit (ADD) and Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) to remain at their desks among their peers while shielding them from classroom distractions. The study center sits on a desk or table and is comprised of two sides, a back, and a top that hinges at an angle over the center that allows the teacher to view each student's work. When folded, the study center will fit nicely in a three-ring binder or notebook for storage.

1 ) What I claim as my invention is a portable desktop, study center to provide privacy for students and others while working at a table or desk: 
 The present invention is a unique multi-fold sheet comprised of rigid panels that shield a student's work from others and when folded fits in a three-ring binder.    The invention has a top panel that is foldably attached to the top and sides to provide privacy for students with attention-deficit disorder and ADHD conditions and allows them to remain seated with their peers.    
     
     
         2 ) What I claim as my invention is a center that can be utilized with board games and other activities to ensure privacy while still communicating with those at the table.
