Many students enjoy technology so much. It helps them stay focused on what they are learning. I'm a counselor, and lot of activities that are college and career focused are on the computer. My students will be looking up future careers that interest them. Students will have the opportunity to listen to career oriented people who talk about how they started their career and how they're enjoying it. This excites students to hear how other people got started in their careers. Students will also complete projects by listening to directions given and this is done by utilizing their headphones and organizing the project to get the job done. Students are technology driven anyway. Having the headphones plugged into the chrome books allow student to pay attention more, focus on the content that is expressed to them; and this will help them to achieve much success. Technology is so positive for students and it gives them that independent instruction that is needed sometimes. Students enjoy, learn, and will be able to stay focused while using the headphones. This will help them to continue to learn, grow and be great!
