{"product_id":"interactive-television-and-children-von-hamish-mcpharlin","title":"Interactive Television and Children","description":"\u003cp\u003eInteractive Television is seemingly a natural fit for enhancing the educational impact of children¿s television viewing, through providing the possibility of a reciprocal interaction between the viewer and the experience. The ability to be an active participant in a television narrative has support from contemporary notions of childhood learning, however to date there is little evidence of programming that represent a compelling model of best practice.    This study tested the assumption that interactive television can significantly increase comprehension in early childhood viewers. It accomplished this through researching and developing a model of interactivity based on childhood education theory. A children's programme was produced and tested with 199 children aged 4-5, and comprehension scores were compared to a non-interactive Control group.     This study investigated an area that is largely overlooked by content producers, and discovered some compelling evidence of the power of interactive television for children's learning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783659218934\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesigning and testing the power of Interactive Television for children's learning\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783659218934","offer_id":39487765774429,"sku":"9783659218934","price":79.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/ed2fbd39-0c6b-44ee-9bc8-6ae7e51d3333.jpg?v=1759294408","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/interactive-television-and-children-von-hamish-mcpharlin","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
