Prior to these, they had poor-quality black headphones - so when they saw purple, orange, yellow, and green they were instantly obsessed. The second thing they find to be amazing with these headphones is the comfort. They no longer come to me stating that the headphones hurt their head and ears. And, finally, the most important aspect of these new headphones provided with your generosity, is that my students are able to hear all of the academic content that they explore for their research projects, independent learning, and free learning time. \r\n\r\nI feel that my students are gaining more with their computerized individual learning than before simply because they can hear more clearly without any other distractions.
