Listen "Considering Classroom Soundscapes for Young Students"
Episode Synopsis
The sound environment of a classroom can significantly impact the experience of students, particularly for young learners. Yet most research on primary school classroom acoustics has focused solely on removing all sound, even though some sounds may be beneficial to young students’ experience. In this interview, we talk to Chiara Visentin (University of Ferrara) about her research into the soundscape of primary school classrooms.Associated paper: Chiara Visentin, Simone Torresin, Matteo Pellegatti, and Nicola Prodi. “Indoor soundscape in primary school classrooms."
