Consider COVID-19 precautions when using this technology
The Catchbox is a throwable microphone. It’s nicely padded, so you can promote engagement in your sessions without risking injuring someone!
Contact learningservices@uos.ac.uk if you would like to make use of Catchbox in your teaching.
It’s a way of promoting quick, engaging contributions to a session. In a large session, it works quite well as it can be quickly passed to people who wish to contribute.
If you weren’t initially planning to use a microphone, it also makes it easier for those who have a hearing impairment.
It can also record the contributions on the device that it’s connected to.
You can request a Catchbox by selecting the relevant option in the filming request form: https://uos.libwizard.com/f/catchbox
