Hearing is the primary channel for learning. The more children hear, the better they learn per Dr. Mark Ross, University of Connecticut. Classroom audio technology has been used effectively to enhance listening and learning. Younger children's lack of experience and knowledge with speech and language makes them very dependent on soft, subtle consonant sounds that make up key elements of word recognition. According to a recent study from the United States Department of Education, English Language Learners can score as much as 30% higher on word/sentence recognition tests when classroom audio is used. My students need 29 wireless stereo headphones to replace the old worn out headphones that the students use daily in the computer lab. With all the new stereo computer-based learning programs out there for children to learn from, they need to be able to move freely and hear the sounds clearly.
