ADM Sound Amplification System

 

The Educational Disadvantage Centre was awarded a grant of 158,158 Euro from the Pobal Dormant Accounts Fund to install sound-field amplification systems in 8 primary schools in Ballyfermot and North Inner City Dublin, and to engage in a 2 year research programme on their benefits for speech and language, behaviour management and prevention of Attention Deficit Disorder.

The aim of this research was to study the impact of classroom sound field amplification on individual children from designated disadvantaged schools who were considered by their teachers to experience the most severe speech/language problems. The report on the study will present findings from a series of case studies illustrating individual responses to intervention.
