University Roundtable: Watching TV through Toddlers’ Eyes  (back)
 
Description:
Adults tend to think of TV viewing as a simple and passive activity. However, research with infants and young children demonstrates that watching and learning from screen media are complex activities requiring viewers to coordinate several cognitive processes. Using evidence from her own experimental research as well as others’, Dr. Heather Kirkorian will describe how individuals develop from infants who fail to understand the symbolic nature of visual images to young children who can acquire a wide range of knowledge and skills through educational media.
