The ability to hear and comprehend what is being taught in the classroom is fundamental to student success. Unfortunately, many students are unable to hear their teachers clearly due to background noise, classroom acoustics, and other factors. This can lead to frustration, disengagement, and ultimately, poor academic performance. The solution to this problem is classroom sound audio systems. By providing clear, consistent sound throughout the classroom, these systems can help to improve student comprehension, reduce teacher vocal strain, and enhance classroom management. In a previous blog, I shared the top four reasons why classroom audio solutions are essential for improved teaching and learning.

As a teacher, when you walk in your classroom it is expected that you will talk, talk, and probably talk some more. This can lead to vocal problems that over time can do more damage and lead to reduced interaction and engagement with your students in an effort to ‘save your voice.’ Beyond using your “outside voice” inside the classroom, what can you do to manage your vocal health so that sore throats and sick days are minimized?

Technology continues to change the face of education, including how teachers and students interact in the classroom. Even after a swift move to greater technology implementation in the past two years, managing the use of laptops, tablets, a front-of-class display, and students remote learning can be exhausting for teachers. Add to that the expectation for personalized learning that meets each student’s needs and frustration can grow for both the teachers responsible for planning and facilitating instruction, and the students who may not feel motivated or focused to engage. What support can be offered to help alleviate the challenges being felt?

Hello, I am a Lyrik that lives in the classroom. Sometimes I get to go to other places, but my teacher mostly uses me in the room to help students hear what she needs to say. Things have changed a lot in the last year or so. I used to see all the students in the classroom, and I always helped my teacher with clear and loud audio so that she could teach through just about anything. But now I only see half of the students on one day, and the other half the next. Hopefully soon I can see all the students together again!

Hello, I am a Lyrik that lives in the Physical Education Department. Mr. Peters was up super early to take me to the school pool for swim practice. He wants to make sure that every member of the swim team can hear the guidance and feedback needed to improve their skills. One of the better parts of my job is to help the person who has me to communicate clearly so that any important information and direction is heard.

It’s going to be a full day for a Lyrik like me. Ms. Rogers already had her morning cup of coffee and greeted everyone in the school office. The main office sure is a busy place! Soon Ms. Rogers and I will be heading out to help direct cars while students and parents cross the street. We want to make sure everyone gets to school safely, and Ms. Rogers always takes me along so that instructions can be heard loudly and clearly. Morning arrival can get really hectic!

The ability to understand the lessons being taught in a classroom is crucial for student learning. If the teacher must strain to have themselves heard, or students cannot access the lesson because of hearing challenges, this can impede active learning. Jaime Mendez, Regional VP and Application Engineer for FrontRow by Boxlight, recently discussed the value of high-quality audio systems to support teachers and students with Larry Jacobs from Equity and Access PreK-12 (ace-ed.org).
