Hearing augmentation systems are compulsory in new constructions and create inclusive education across Australian schools. This technology ensures hard of hearing learners, visitors and teacher receive auditory information clearly regardless of where they are seated or the challenges they may face.
The UConnect SoundHouse by Hear and Learn is designed to support better communication throughout the learning environment by capturing and broadcasting teacher voices, learner voices and screen audio evenly across the classroom. Further, the system can also transmit these signals, along with PA and front office messaging, directly to compatible hearing aid receivers used by students, visitors and teachers.
Supporting inclusive learning environments
Every student learns differently. Some students may experience diagnosed hearing challenges, while others may face barriers related to language, wellbeing, learning difficulties or personal circumstances.
Classroom hearing augmentation systems can help create more accessible learning environments by improving how clearly spoken information is delivered throughout the space.
Clear communication can support participation, engagement and confidence for a wide range of learners.
Why access to communication matters
One school network currently using Hear and Learn technology across both existing and new campuses believes access to education is a basic human right.
The network recognises that removing barriers to communication is critical to helping young people engage in education and achieve positive outcomes regardless of their background or circumstances.
Supporting wellbeing and student engagement
Inclusive learning environments focus not only on academic outcomes, but also on student wellbeing, resilience and participation.
The schools using Hear and Learn technology also emphasise:
- Creating safe and supportive learning communities
- Supporting physical, social and mental wellbeing
- Recognising every student’s unique learning journey
- Helping students build resilience and confidence
- Encouraging participation within the school community
