Instead of trying to follow videos over background noise, each student can now focus, listen carefully, and work through the Edpuzzle questions at their own pace. The first time we used them, the room became instantly calm and focused, and several students said they finally understood the video because they could actually hear every part. Because of this, my students were very excited for the activities to come. \r\n\r\nAs already stated, these headphones have especially helped during our Edpuzzle-based lessons, which we use to reinforce key biology concepts. Students replay explanations, pause when they need more time, and rewatch challenging sections independently without feeling rushed. With the help of the headphones, engagement is higher, scores have improved, and students are genuinely more invested in their learning.\r\n\r\nThanks to your generosity, we will continue using these headphones for Edpuzzles, virtual labs, science videos, and review activities as we move through our upcoming units. Your support has created a more focused, equitable, and engaging learning environment, and my students feel truly supported because of you.
