| Abstract: |
This 2-page brief presents 8 new directions drawn from the authors' report "Reflections on the Ready To Learn Initiative, 2010 to 2015" that educational media producers can take to better foster all children's school readiness and success. Since 2006, EDC and SRI have worked together on a series of efficacy studies and evaluations of Ready To Learn resources. Our research has found that digital media and technology can help families and teachers enhance the math and literacy learning of young children in low-income households. The "Reflections on the Ready To Learn Initiative" report and this 2-page brief are based on the authors' interviews with 26 children's media researchers, producers, and thought leaders. [For "Reflections on the Ready To Learn Initiative, 2010 to 2015," see ED567881.] |
