My Project

In recent years, technology has been a larger and larger part of the classroom. With the surge in Coronavirus cases in early 2020, technology became a vital piece of the learning experience for students. Students are back in classrooms now, and the need to incorporate technology into learning has not lessened in the years since 2020. Students need to have the access to technology to keep up with the world we live in.

These earbuds will provide an access point into the world of technology for my students.

Through this they can listen to videos as they take notes, listen to music to help them focus, engage with their peers through projects, and have an extra tool to support overcoming learning challenges they may otherwise face. My students have the option to borrow traditional headphones from me during class, but it means a lot to them to have their own pair of earbuds that can travel with them.
