Archived Webinar: 5 Steps to Integrating New Classroom Technology
Learn how new instructional technologies can improve student achievement
Sponsored by LightSPEED
In today's technology-driven classrooms, the importance of improving audio clarity is often overlooked. This web seminar focuses on the use of classroom amplification technology (CAT) as the basis for integrating other components, such as computers, TV, CD/DVD, streaming video, and more. Currently used in thousands of classrooms, CAT distributes sound evenly and improves speech intelligibility for instruction. Studies show CAT also reduces teacher fatigue, raises test scores, and improves overall student achievement.
