The school desk is a furniture item added by the Biotech DLC

Acquisition[edit]

School desks can be constructed once the Complex furniture research project has been completed. They require Stuff 30 Stuff (Woody/Stony/Metallic) and 750 ticks (12.5 secs) of work.

Summary[edit]

School desks allow children to do the Lesson Learning task. Children sit behind the desk and constantly gain Learning. Adults can sit beside the children to increase skill XP in a random, valid skill. Adults are not required for children to learn at a desk.

Desks can connect to up to 3 nearby blackboards. Each blackboard increases Learning rate by 20% per blackboard, for a total of +60% Learning. Blackboards do not impact skill XP growth.[Verify] Multiple desks can connect to the same blackboard. Which directions the desk or blackboards are facing has no impact.

Analysis[edit]

A no-brainer to build when raising any child, as it is inexpensive and gives the child access to more learning types. Lessons can provide a significant amount of skill XP, so long as an adult is available for childcare. Even without an adult, a desk will increase the rate of learning. Adults will also gain social XP by teaching children.
