    Block Out Sounds for More Focus

    It’s test-taking time, and you’ve prepared your students to the best of your abilities. Shouldn’t your equipment help too?

    Study Better, Not Harder with Noise-Canceling Headphones

    It’s critical for AP language students to clearly hear all of the nuances they’re being tested on. That’s where the Active Noise Canceling Headphones come into play. This active (not just passive) noise-canceling headphone features large, over-the-ear earcups and a special trait: a built-in noise-canceling feature that can be activated via an on/off switch.

    During a high-stakes testing event, students can turn the feature on to block external background noise and minimize distractions, allowing them to better concentrate on their test. Oftentimes, being able to fully direct their attention to their test can mean the difference between doing well and not. The technology in active noise-canceling headphones can help students focus more on tests, enabling them to succeed in their academic careers.

    Benefits for Students Using Califone Headphones

    Which Califone Headphones Best Fit Student Needs?

    What about a situation where clear audio transmission is critical? Luckily, there are headphones and headsets that let students focus without external distractions. If they are using computers for different projects that require listening to audio, have them wear the 3068AV switchable stereo/mono headphones with their large, ambient-noise-reducing ear cups. If the application requires vocal responses, a headset with large ear cups and a boom microphone, such as the 3066, 4100USB, or a Titanium™ series headset, can come in handy. Students are not only directing their attention to their work by being able to listen intently to the audio but also responding accordingly.
