Adam: Letting students choose their own seats teaches them to be independent(独立的). It shows them that teachers believe in them. Quiet and shy students can feel more relaxed in class when they sit next to their friends. When students are more relaxed, they will learn better.
Sara: Students don’t need to sit with friends in class. It can’t make them or other students focus on their lessons. Sitting with people they don’t know well helps students walk out of their comfort zones(舒适区). ▲ And if a student is new to a school, he or she might not know anyone yet, so where should he or she sit? A teacher can choose the right seat for each person.
