Headphones for Higher Learning

Help me give my students their own set of headphones to use during computer time. We are struggling to have enough for all of the students and they have to share headphones which is not sanitary nor resourceful.

My Students

My students are a diverse group both academically and demographically. We enjoy music, singing, dancing, and inquisitive conversations. They enjoy learning about different topics and are always curious to learn more about the topics that interest them. We make the best of what we have but we struggle to learn using technology because we do not have enough resources for the students to have what they need to implement technology appropriately in my classroom. If you could meet my students, you would love them.

My Project

This will allow the opportunity for all of my students to have their own set of headphones so that they do not need to share, and I can have all of the students working with technology at the same time.

This project is to allow my students to have their own headphones for resourcefulness and to be more sanitary than sharing headphones with others.

We are using Google Chromebooks for both literacy and mathematics. The programs that we are implementing can really benefit my students, both the academically high and support the academically low. My students will benefit from this so much and I am grateful to have something like this to help us achieve our goals.
