I am requesting headphones so my students can focus on their learning. In my classroom, technology is an important tool used in learning. Students have daily access to iPads and computers. Students program robots, they use a computer-aided design program to design projects, and use technology as a way to look up information. Many times students ask me for headphones so they can they can focus on their learning. Students use the headphones to listen to tutorials, interactive lessons, and to help them read text. The headphones will allow them to access what they need without bothering other students. Some students even use headphones to help them focus while completing projects, since some of my classes have 35 students in them. In the past, I have paid for headphones out of my own pocket but those headphones were cheap and would break easily. Headphones will allow students to concentrate and focus on their work without disturbing someone else.
