Marketing Information |
Providing safe audio equipment for
group-based environments is critical in aiding students to work and
study together. The 8-position Sound Alert Listening Center is the first
of its kind to warn teachers and students when the audio that's played
through the jackbox to its headphones is louder than the American
Speech-Language-Hearing Association's recommended 85dB level.
The center is ideal for supporting audio-assisted learning activities
such as individual and group tutorials, literacy groups, language
lessons, story-time, Special Education, and ELL/ELD learning
applications. It includes the Sound Alert jackbox, eight matching
2924AVG monaural headphones and a rugged carry case. With the sound
level controlled from its jackbox, the listening center can safely keep
the volume to a safe 85 decibel level.
When the jackbox volume exceeds 85 decibels, a bright red LED warning
light turns on, alerting both the teacher and students about the unsafe
sound level requiring adjustment. This visual cue not only helps correct
the current situation, but will also help students learn safe and
lifelong listening practices in school and extending beyond their
academic careers.
According to a March 2006 national poll commissioned by the American
Speech-Language-Hearing Association, 40% of students reportedly set
their music players' volume too loud above 85 decibels, which is the
level hearing experts recommend not be exceeded. If music can be heard
coming from a student's headphone, the volume is too loud and the
student is at risk of experiencing hearing loss.
Hearing loss can lead to many problems in school including: difficulty
with academic achievement in language arts, vocabulary, arithmetic, and
problem solving. Students with hearing loss score lower on achievement
tests, and have greater needs for special education or extra support in
the classroom.
The durable Sound Alert jackbox can also be used as a traditional
jackbox without charging its battery, but the warning LED feature will
not operate. The jackbox conserves its power by shutting off when no
audio signal is present for 60 seconds and will power on automatically
when there is an audio signal present. |
