My students, grades Pre-K to 5th grade use the computer lab on a daily basis for all kinds of activities and projects. More than 90% of the activities require that the students use headphones but unfortunately most of my students do not have the funds to purchase any headphones or the ones they do have are so cheap that they do not last very long or become broken.
If kids do not have headphones, they cannot hear what is going on in the computer program and they are not able to learn. Some of the teachers have tried to buy headphones at the dollar store but, again, these are not very well made and break after a few uses. As you can imagine, this is very frustrating for both the students and the teachers.
Getting these headphones will allow the students to get the most out of the computer programs they are learning with and achieve the results they are supposed to in Math, Reading, Science, and Technology.
