New Classroom Technology Sounds like a Great Idea
In previous posts we’ve looked at how technology might not be in students’ best interests.
But a London Free Press article shows one way that technology is helping students have a better classroom experience by installing a surround sound system to help amplify the teacher’s voice.
“It makes such a difference when everyone can hear what you are doing. The kids tune in a whole lot better. They maintain their attention much longer,” said Clifford, who’s been teaching for 20 years.
“And as a teacher, your tone does not have to change, you don’t have to shout or raise your voice and you know there is nowhere in the room that has more advantage than anywhere else.”
She had been raising her voice to be heard for more than a decade when a child with special needs came into her class equipped with a sound system.
Surround sound to help students be more attentive in the classroom? Sounds like a great idea!
