Individual focus
HEARING PROTECTIONTeachers in Switzerland are in the midst of a new approach to creative learning. Each student gets an individualized program designed by the teacher with the child’s unique character in mind. Swiss educators say this allows students to progress at their own pace. “Kids with a good grasp can work on advanced exercises, whereas kids with difficulties get the time they need to learn the basics,” says Sara Müller, a primary school teacher in Switzerland. “With this technique, each kid gets the time needed to realize a satisfying work.”
Sara has been helping her students stay focused with 3M PELTOR Earmuffs, which 3M donated. The stylish sound-blockers help reduce surrounding noise by 27 decibels, allowing budding geniuses to focus on the lesson their teachers worked so hard to create.Individual focus
