My Project

My students are incredibly vibrant and enjoy digital experiences. They often use their devices in class to support their overall learning. The headphones will support the management of using a class set of devices throughout the day. The students will use the headphones to aid in providing them the capacity to hear their skill-building activities in a comfortable class community. Also, it is crucial to allow students to reach their full potential by giving them the tools to be as successful as possible because headphones matter in a world of technology.
