Radio aqids are often a good option. Can I suggest that the microphone is clearly labelled "Turn this OFF if you leave the room for any reason" A while ago one troublesome student asked his Maths lecturer to wear a radio mic and then proceeded to be a pain all through his lesson. The teacher left the room to 'vent his spleen' to a colleague about the student, forgetting to turn off the mic. However, despite the teacher feeling somewhat embarrassed, apparently their relationship improved after the student heard what the lecturer felt about him. A female colleague, however, recalled taking her mic (still switched on) to the loo with her. She felt somewhat less comfortable teaching that group for the rest of the year. Dangerous things.

A hard-of-hearing student who is currently borrowing my radio aid on trial is very impressed with the results and will be applying for DSA to buy his own. Clare Davies ---------- >>
