| Title of the article | Ergonomic furniture as an essential part of forming co-working space in the High School |
| Abstract. | A young programmer Brad Newberg was the first person, who proposed such model of workflow. It was in 2005 year. The basic idea of co-working is to unite freelancers under the same roof as the main disadvantage of «working at home» is the lack of open communication. Nowadays freelance is quite common among designers, programmers, translators, business start-ups. Co-working takes an intermediate position between working at home and working in the office. Currently there are no definite principles of forming such premises of a space. The main requirement is comfort, because the visitor should feel like «at home», while his coefficient of the efficiency will be higher than at home. Scientists have proved that the work or perform tasks at home is unproductive, because 70 % of people are distracted by television, food or other household chores. After studying the concept, history, foreign and domestic experience in the development of co-working and so-called «co-working spaces», the idea to identify the forms and methods of organizing such spaces in the structure of higher education came. Co-working at the university would be able to solve a number of problems faced by the modern student every day. For example, it is the lack of a platform for doing collective homework. In addition, exchange of experiences and live chat has the primary task, as today's young people become addicted of social networks. The so-called «work together» (co-working – working together) could prepare students to work in teams. |
