Jo A Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Have you read Toxic Childhood by Sue Palmer. There's quite a bit in there. Quote
HappyMaz Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 And recently there has been the 'spongebob' research into the effects of fast-paced children's television on cognitive function. I'll try and find a link. Also there is some research just about to be published saying that so-called educational programming for children has little or no educational benefit. Quote
StrawberyTwirl Posted October 22, 2011 Posted October 22, 2011 There is something in this months Early Years Update... The Dfe have recently published a research project 'Investigating the Role of Language in Children's Early Educational Outcomes' The link published in Early Years Update didn't work for me... but i searched the report and came up with the web addresses below. I had a quick scan, the data reports were as confusing as ever, but key findings on page 38 may give you a quote or two! https://www.education.gov.uk/publications/s...Page1/DFE-RR134 https://www.education.gov.uk/publications/e...d/DFE-RR134.pdf Quote
