My Project

Privacy shields can serve many purposes in the classroom. Their ability to help students focus and concentrate better is of utmost importance. Privacy shields create a personal learning space that minimizes distractions, allowing students to stay on task and engage more deeply with their work. This also holds true for headphones. Outside noise is lessened which allows the student to focus more and concentrate better.

Research says the sense of privacy and security afforded by using a privacy shield can help them perform better on assessments and standardized tests.

Both headphones and privacy shields offers enhanced privacy for sensitive tasks and topics. Certain classroom activities, such as journal writing or researching a sensitive topic like divorce or adoption, could require a level of privacy. Privacy shields and headphones offer a discreet environment for such tasks. Please help us to get these much needed resources.
