My Project

In my library and makerspace class, part of the curriculum is using technology such as chromebooks and iPads. Some of the programs we used require sound and when all the students are using the program it because very noisy and distracting to students. Currently, we don't have enough headphones to go around and the headphones we do have are adult-sized which is very difficult for our younger learners to keep on their heads.

Having well-fitting, durable headphones will allow our students to focus on the digital learning and feel comfortable as they are working.

This will ultimately help students to be more successful when using technology in our class.
