John Kilbourne, professor of movement science at Grand Valley State
University, appeared on the National Public Radio show Here and Now. He
spoke about the results of his experiment having students sit on
stability balls instead of chairs in his classes.
Kilbourne found that the over-sized, bouncy plastic orbs improved
students’ posture and attention spans; and all but one of his 52
students wanted to use the balls in their other classes.
