How does Phonak Roger Touchscreen Mic support inclusive learning?
A teacher’s mission is to inspire and guide every student. The Roger Touchscreen Mic supports that mission by helping students with hearing difficulties stay connected, participate fully, and thrive in today’s dynamic classrooms.
MultiTalker Network
The Roger Touchscreen Mic connects to multiple microphones and media devices to create a Roger classroom ecosystem. This setup promotes full classroom interaction by ensuring every student can hear teachers, classmates, and instructional media. When paired with Roger DigiMaster loudspeakers, sound from all sources, teachers, students, and multimedia is amplified and accessible to everyone in the room.
Lanyard mode
During classroom lessons or lectures, the teacher can wear the Roger Touchscreen Mic around the neck in lanyard mode. This keeps the microphone in the optimal position to capture the teacher’s voice, ensuring every student can hear instructions and participate fully in class.
Small Group mode
The Roger Touchscreen Mic uses three built-in microphones that work together in a clever, adaptive way. When placed on a table, it automatically focuses on the person speaking in the group. In one study, every single child preferred listening to their peers during classroom activities when using the Roger Touchscreen Mic in Small Group mode, compared to hearing aids alone.4
Pointing mode
Sometimes, the student is the one using the Roger Touchscreen Mic. They can easily take it from one classroom to another for consistent hearing support throughout the school day. Using Pointing mode, a child or teen can simply aim the microphone toward the teacher to clearly capture their voice with a pick-up range of up to 4 meters (13 feet).
