Apart.
In traditional and self-paced classrooms, libraries and other learning environments, students can achieve
more with Califone learning centers. Our learning centers are ideal for different sized student groups to listen to audio books,
do computer work, record podcasts or watch instructional media without disturbing the rest of the class.
All our learning centers feature headphones with ambient noise-reducing earcups to minimize external
distractions and potential hearing loss. And for students who lack strong language skills or are developing computer
competencies, Califone media players have playback features so language samples can be repeated to
reinforce instruction or you can record your own to support specic instruction or activities. Rugged ABS plastic
construction withstands hard use in schools and still projects its excellent sound.
Other examples of Califone innovation?
We offer the only two learning centers with variable speed playback. We offer wireless headphones and
also jackboxes with USB connectors to work directly with the computers in your classroom, so students can work more
effectively in small groups, maximizing collaboration and access to technology at the same time!

more quickly in an audio-rich environment. The high-quality audio of our learning

or practicing a newlanguage. This best-seller is available in two versions to work
with different sized groups. In addition to the Spirit multimedia (AM-FM/CD/Cassette)

reducing earcups with padded headband; choice of four or ten-position stereo

Performer Plus
Learning Center
When using technology to teach students higher level critical thinking
skills, it helps to use durable Califone products specically
designed for classroom use. The components of this
multimedia player along with the ve durable stereo
headphones allow students to listen to read-alouds,
record voice-overs for video clips, or create and
evaluate lessons with other students. The Performer
Plus and new 2396 are the only media players
on the market which feature variable speed playback
which can be essential for students struggling to
discern different letter or word combinations. The
speed of the recorded text can be slowed to accommodate
the learner’s needs. Headphones plug directly into the back
of the media player eliminating the need for a separate jackbox.
Whether used at a reading station for independent or small group
use or as part of a large multimedia production involving student
collaboration, the Performer Plus makes the technology invisible to
students enabling them to focus on their projects or assignments.
