Descripción

The tool is to be used during a speech, lecture or other spoken presentation.

The instructor shows the sound device, sets it in a visible spot and explains its use. During the speech/presentation whenever anyone in the group does not understand a term or word used in the speech, they can ask for an explanation by beeping the jargon alarm = making a sound with the device. The speaker should pause and give a more clear wording or explanation.

Variaciones

The beeped terms can be written on white board/paper as a shared glossary.

Watching a dialogue or presentation from the media, sound device can be used as lie/bulls**t alarm??
