My Project

My students have so many great ideas when presented with writing prompts tasks, and comprehension questions. They are excited to share their stories, thoughts, opinions, and answers verbally. However, when asked to write these same wonderful words, they often hesitate and are unable to.

These noise-canceling headphones with microphones, give my students the ability to access the speech-to-text tools and can create the writing samples they are capable of.

The noise-canceling feature will allow multiple students to perform their writing tasks simultaneously; an effective use of our scheduled class time.
