The Mosquito
A National STEM Learning Centre and Network Engineering Case Studies resource investigating how science is used to build devices that drive groups of youngsters away from buildings.
Hearing loss is age-related: this company uses that science knowledge to build devices that drive groups of youngsters away from buildings. Kids are naturally outraged by this - but it doesn't stop them downloading the ultrasound ringtones that the same company produces so that their teacher can't hear their phone go off in class!
