A self-paced, no-cost website created to address the over representation of teachers in voice clinics. While teachers suffer more voice disorders than other workers, it is estimated that 75 percent of these problems can be prevented or self-managed if teachers are given appropriate information. This website's major feature is a virtual school where teachers explore topics such as voice production basics; safe classroom acoustics; amplification system use; and the healthy body/healthy voice connection. The site also features an auxiliary in-service curriculum to allow local advocates to introduce the website to their teacher colleagues.
