My Project

As technology use increases in education, so does the need for equipment to use the technology. My students are being required to use the computers more and more often during the school day. In a typical class, I have about 28 students and I teach two different classes. With that many students in the classroom, it is difficult for them to hear anything on the computer, and it also makes it hard for them to record their responses to work with all of the noise in the background.

I teach in a Title 1 school with many students who have parents in the military.

This makes it a struggle for some students to bring in any extra supplies like headphones.

We will be using these headphones with microphones so that students are able to watch videos that I have made to review learning, and also to create their own presentations to show mastery of a given topic. They will be used in all subject areas during the school year.
