Do we need headphones?

You can listen to Listenwise stories with or without headphones. Our audio has the flexibility to be played for the entire class, or through headphones if students are listening individually.

If you are playing it for the class, we suggest using external speakers, as laptop speakers will not be loud enough (an interactive whiteboard is great for this). If students are going to listen on their own, then we recommend headphones or earbuds.
