Your words are important.
We want them to be clear. As an educator, you
always wonder if you're getting through. Now, research indicates
that most students catch only about three-quarters of what
you say. That's a pretty remarkable
statistic but it's not entirely surprising considering today's
larger class sizes and poor classroom acoustics. Even in
smaller environments, background noise can mask your voice
and make comprehension a real challenge. No wonder more
and more schools are turning to Frontrow. Our active learning
systems are designed to optimise classroom sound quality
but more important, they're designed to engage young minds,
inspire participation. By creating a more intimate environment
for learning you are giving your words more power than you
ever imagined.
- With today's noisy classrooms, obstacles
to listening can become barriers to learning. That's why
Frontrow does more than improve classroom sound quality.
It also empowers students and inspires participation so
there's more room for discussion and less room for confusion.
- Recent studies show that most students
miss at least 25% percent of what you say leaving plenty
of room for confusion. So if we want our students to learn,
we have to make it easier for them to listen. Today, Frontrow
technology does more than improve classroom audibility.
It inspires participation so your words aren't just heard,
but understood.
- With poor classroom acoustics and
larger class sizes it's no surprise that most students
can't hear and process everything you say. That's why
there's Frontrow. Phonic Ear technology enhances the quality
of your voice and redirects your words so that everyone
can hear clearly. When it's easier for students to listen,
it's easier for them to learn.
Frontrow Active Learning
Solutions:
- A more ideal learning environment
for every student by clarifying the teacher's voice
- Proximate goal is clarity without
teacher strain; ultimate goals are improved engagement
and participation, test scores, behaviour, teaching ease
(control, dynamic range, energy)
