San Fernando, CA (February, 2008) — The use of classroom learning centers continues to grow as teachers and students become more comfortable using technology in a group setting. Learning centers allow teachers to differentiate instruction for their students by grouping them with peers with similar abilities, and students have reported they enjoy using the technology at school. As the leader in powered and non-powered learning centers, Califone International, Inc., has recently introduced two learning centers to offer educators the flexibility they need during instruction.
Each new Califone learning center offers educators high-quality technology allowing for multiple students to work together and learn simultaneously.
The Two learning centers include:
- 8104: The new Califone MP3 player/recorder offers dual headphone jacks with an integrated control to limit volume playback in response to recommendations from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) to keep volume below 85dB. This is the first portable MP3 learning center and comes with four-person capability, a stereo jackbox and ambient noise-reducing headphones, all packaged in a rugged foam-lined carrying case.
- 1216USB-6: This non-powered package highlights the education industry's first USB jackbox. Schools have embraced using USB technology to download instructional audio content faster and easier. This learning center includes six ambient noise-reducing headphones and also comes with six microphone inputs, enabling students to capture their responses using the computer as part of language learning and practice.
“Developing more convenient ways for teachers and students to utilize MP3 files, our goal is to make teaching with classroom technology seamless, and in the process facilitate learning,” said Tim Ridgway, VP of Marketing for Califone.
To order any of the learning centers listed above, contact a Califone dealer.
