Listening and Speaking With Technology
Funded Dec 6, 2018Thank you so much for contributing to my project "Listening and Speaking with Technology". Having headphones that both work for listening as well as having a built-in microphone for recording student projects is a huge help in my classroom. There are so many different ways that we can assess students and giving them the ability to share responses orally and with recorded options allows for differentiation based on a students strengths and needs.
My students love that these headphones work every time they go to use them. Many of the ones we had access to before, were used by multiple classes and were not in good condition. These new headphones are a better quality and the students love that they can control the volume right on the headphones.
Being able to use digital books with audio has been something my students has loved. We use a program called MyOn that allows students to read and listen to books that are leveled to their ability. I've watched students that have not always spent their extra time reading be excited that they can use this program. I like that it also allows students to listen to books that they might not be able to read independently.”
