In a typical classroom you have a number of environmental and student factors that can interfere with listening. Since listening is a major part of our daily routine, a classroom amplification system can go a long way towards ensuring attentiveness and understanding. There are many benefits when classrooms have an amplification system. Here are three: Enhanced student performance: Students are more attentive and tend to perform better when amplification systems are used. Help for struggling kids: Children process and filter sound less effectively than adults do and are more likely to be “overloaded”. Not only do students who suffer from auditory processing disorders benefit, but any student who has trouble listening will benefit from an amplification system. Improved student behavior: If students can hear you better, they will listen better. "Sound Enhancement Systems Improve Off-Task Behavior. Studies show the classrooms that used the sound enhancement systems indicated consistency in the decline of off-task behavior for all classes that used the system, over classrooms that did not." (Ryan, University of West Florida, 2002)
