We designed a number of activities, applied during a practical lesson, in which students evaluated some of their perceptions and attitudes towards noise, and recorded their hearing capacity. Students increased their noise awareness after performing the practice. We propose the introduction of activities similar to those proposed here, to prevent hearing loss from exposure to noise and promote such preventive activities among these future school teachers. 2022-10-10T09:07:32Z 2022-10-10T09:07:32Z 2012 info:eu-repo/semantics/article M.-P.
