The high quality, long lasting headphones provided in this grant are used in many different settings in the school. The noise reduction feature helps reduce distractions and allows students to maintain focus. For some students, canceling out classroom noise also creates a calmer environment and helps reduce stress and anxiety. Some students enjoy noise canceling headphones for assemblies and music performances too. This makes our preferred headphones a dual purpose tool that functions across many school environments. This project was funded because having a set of high quality, long lasting, and sustainable headphones in our classrooms aids teachers and students in differentiating learning opportunities, while accommodating many learning styles, and also assist teachers in capturing the needs and achievements of a wide variety of students.
