I do not think I would allow my students to listen to their devices during my class period. I find that listening on person devices is a distraction to what is happening in class. I think that if we need to listen to something, it can be done as a class with speakers.
She gives three reasons in order to support her claim. The first reason is “teenagers exhibit what’s known as a slight hearing loss.” The author tried to convince to parents that if children constantly using headphones, they often cannot hear sounds at a low volume and they cannot make out consonants like T’s or K's. The second reason is “the danger of digital culture to young people is not that they have hummingbird attention spans but that they are going deaf.” In this reason, Heffernan wanted to show that how dangerous of headphones will cause. The last reason is headphone users who listen to music at high volume for more than an hour a day risk permanent hearing loss after five
In Elementary, I really enjoyed coming to school and learning about things I was interested in. At age 6, my older brother, Anthony, passed away in a car accident. This was a hard time for my family, but we eventually got through it. My Grandmother moved back in with us after

In today’s high-tech environment, we are losing our listening ability. We utilize recording via audio or video, which hinders the opportunity of listening to what the environment is trying to teach you. Society today is losing the art of gathering information via our ears. Our sense of hearing is one of our most important senses in information gathering and comprehension.
Sound Advice identifies hearing technologies and digital tools for children and students to use as part of their day.
In everyone's life most memorable part and best is their childhood. Those child hood situation and incidents will put a smile on ones face when they were grown up. In childhood there will be many memorable situations left behind. when they were grown up they will definitly feel that they are missing those child hood days.

Everyone will feel very difficulty at that time of childhood, but they were grown up they feel that they missing them very much. Situtions, memories and also lessons from hurting all will be fixed in the ones mind very strongly. So the
To cope with their noise sensitivity, some children make or may hum strange sounds to override the overwhelming auditory input. An alternate solution, on the child and the condition, is to listen to songs on headphones, which again has got the result of drowning out external sound. Using this strategy with older children might have the extra benefit of masking noises which may otherwise disturb them, thus allowing better attention, for instance when completing homework
Deafness: something not one human alive would want to face. According to the American Osteopathic Association (AOA), “one in five American teenagers already have some form of hearing loss. That is nearly 30% higher than it was in the 1980s and 1990s.” (par. one) Now, with the increase amount of music available and millions upon billions of videos to watch, it increases the amount of time people spend using earbuds and being on their phones. Most parents allow their children to use headphones freely, but what they do not know is that damage to the ears are slowly being done to their kids hearing health and there are no early signs to show it. Using earbuds is a now an effortless way listen to music without playing it aloud, consequently many
In order to reach that common standard, our level judgments have to somehow fit with the level judgments of the majority of people. It may sound hard at first, but we can actually reach it by going through these steps: rearranging our ideas, gathering sufficient evidence, making judgments of fact, and judging with care. Ideas and beliefs by themselves are neither true or false, they are simply notations and hypotheses which are arriving when something is asserted as being or not being the case that the question of whether an idea is correct, or right, is raised. (St. Mary’s Department of Philosophy, pg. 45 – 46) I understand that what I believe and trust is not always the case in the real world, so to avoid making wrong judgments, the first thing I have to do is to rearrange my ideas. By doing that, I can easily compare my ideas with the fact that has been claimed as the truth. The next thing I will do after that, is to gather sufficient evidence. After getting the evidences that needed, I will start to make my judgements based on them, despite the fact that they are different to each other, all forms of evidences share a common thought structure. They begin by identifying the conditions under which an idea must be true, or otherwise, a person or a thing is bad. (St. Mary’s Department of Philosophy, pg. 45-49) And the last but not least important, I must judge with care. After all, my judgments about other people would affect their lives in certain ways, so I need to be careful before making judgments. The truth is, assigning another person as bad is never an easy thing to do for everyone. No matter how careful we have had, there is always a possibility that we can misjudge a
My life growing up was an utter blur. I was young and had absolutely no idea what was going on. My brothers and I jumped from house to house and constantly became some stranger's responsibility. Losing my mother to drugs, which resulted in me taking care of my younger siblings. Because I was growing up in many settings and going through difficult obstacles, it allowed me to grow into the strong person that I am today.
Most people will say that the best days of your life are going to be during your youth, where you didn’t have to worry about anything and had no responsibilities. When I was a young child, I remember wanting to be a grown up so bad that I got mad at my parents because they treated me like a kid. To this day, I still do not understand why kids want to grow up and be adults so quickly. Now that I’m slowly turning into an adult, I can tell that kids have it way easier than adults do.
Did you know, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, “An estimated 12.5% of children and adolescents aged 6-19 years (approximately 5.2 million) and 17% of adults aged 20-69 years (approximately 26 million) have suffered permanent damage to their hearing from excessive exposure to noise.”? An increase in noise induced hearing loss has raised concerns about the safety of ear buds. Many people are currently debating whether to ban earbuds to solve the issue. Earbuds damage hearing and should be banned. They put adolescents at risk of noise induced hearing loss, they reach dangerously high noise levels, and hearing problems caused as a result of them negatively affect a person's life.
How we view an individual makes a huge different in life because people tend to judge without any knowledge, which will lead to regret in the future therefore; Making a Judgments towards a person, based on their actions or feelings is perverse.
Headphones are so miniscule, but can have a significant impact on one’s hearing. Listening to loud music for long periods of time can lead to eternal hearing problems. The rhetor, Virginia Heffernan, writes an article in the New York Times Magazine arguing why humans should limit the usage of headphones. She explains the history of headphones and the impact they have had on people who use headphones, especially teens. Her message is to start minimizing headphone use because the damage they can cause to hearing. Heffernan presents her argument regarding the use of headphones in an ineffective way because she does not use a tone that is able to persuade the audience.
