Hushh-upsŪ use is increasing dramatically in our schools!
Initially, the use of Hushh-upsŪ was embraced in classrooms where there were students who had a significant degree of hearing loss. However, the teachers and the students greatly missed the lack of noise when the Hushh-upsŪ were passed on to the next year's class.
Students find listening and learning easier when the amount of environmental noise is reduced. In some cases, teachers are purchasing a set of Hushh-upsŪ for their own classroom use. In other cases, school staffs are approaching their Parent Councils for funding to supply all classrooms with Hushh-upsŪ.
The benefit of Hushh-upsŪ has grown far beyond the support of students with hearing loss. Hushh-upsŪ support listening in the classroom for all students!
