My Project
I am requesting headphones for my students to use in the technology lab. One of the great benefits of technology is that it allows for students to receive individualized learning and personalized instruction. There are so many web-based programs available that differentiate instruction to meet the individual needs of the learner. Currently, we are utilizing many of these programs in the technology lab but there are not enough working headphones for every student.
By donating to this project, you will help our students to receive the personalized instruction that they need to succeed.
Distractions make it very difficult to concentrate, but the use of headphones helps students keep their attention on the activity or presentation. Using multimedia presentations and language learning applications can be extremely beneficial for struggling learners in the classroom. Many students are visual or auditory learners which means they would greatly benefit from instructional videos to provide reinforcement. If there were enough pairs of headphones for each student in the classroom, it would improve and increase student attention and focus which would ultimately lead to an increase in their academic achievement. In addition, it would help our students to have access to headphones during state testing.
My goal is to create an environment where every student can thrive by providing them with the tools they need to succeed. With these headphones, students will develop stronger listening skills, enhance their ability to focus, and build confidence in their learning journey.
My students are bright, creative and eager to learn. They come from diverse backgrounds and bring unique perspectives to our classroom. This project will help me to continue to provide engaging opportunities for exploration and discovery.
