Providing safe audio equipment

for group-based environments

is critical in aiding students to

work and study together. The

8-position Sound Alert Listening

Center is the first of its kind to

warn teachers and students

when the audio that’s played

through the jackbox to its

headphones is louder than the

American Speech-Language-

Hearing Association’s

recommended 85dB level.

The center is ideal for

supporting audio-assisted

learning activities such as

individual and group tutorials,

literacy groups, language

lessons, story-time, Special

Education, and ELL/ELD learning

applications. It includes the

Sound Alert jackbox, eight matching 2924AVG monaural headphones and a

rugged carry case. With the sound level controlled from its jackbox, the

listening center can safely keep the volume to a safe 85 decibel level.

When the jackbox volume exceeds 85 decibels, a bright red LED warning

light turns on, alerting both the teacher and students about the unsafe

sound level requiring adjustment. This visual cue not only helps correct the

current situation, but will also help students learn safe and lifelong listening

practices in school and extending beyond their academic careers.

According to a March 2006 national poll commissioned by the American

Speech-Language-Hearing Association, 40% of students reportedly set their

music players’ volume too loud above 85 decibels, which is the level hearing

experts recommend not be exceeded. If music can be heard coming from a

student's headphone, the volume is too loud and the student is at risk of

experiencing hearing loss.

Hearing loss can lead to many problems in school including: difficulty with

academic achievement in language arts, vocabulary, arithmetic, and problem

solving. Students with hearing loss score lower on achievement tests, and

have greater needs for special education or extra support in the classroom.

The durable Sound Alert jackbox can also be used as a traditional jackbox

without charging its battery, but the warning LED feature will not operate.

The jackbox conserves its power by shutting off when no audio signal is

present for 60 seconds and will power on automatically when there is an

audio signal present.
