Engaging With Kids During Screen Time Can Boost Learning
SHARE

As a new parent, the topic of screen time for young children is a common concern among many moms. The impact of digital media on early childhood education is a hot topic of discussion in parent groups and online forums. However, a recent study led by Dr. Gemma Taylor has shed some light on the positive effects of engaging with children during screen time.

Dr. Taylor’s study focused on the co-use of digital media by adults and children aged 0-6. The research found that when adults actively engage with children while using digital media, it can enhance the child’s learning experience. This co-use can involve activities such as viewing, discussing, or interacting with the content together. The study analyzed 17 research papers and revealed a small but significant positive effect on learning outcomes for young children.

Key findings from the study include a modest improvement in learning outcomes (effect size of 0.20), consistency across various study designs and media types, and no significant moderators affecting the outcome. The research suggests that regardless of the child’s age or the type of media being consumed, engaging with the child during screen time can have beneficial effects on their learning.

The study, published in Educational Research Review, underwent a rigorous peer-review process and was conducted by a team of reputable researchers. The methodology used in the study, a systematic review and meta-analysis, adds credibility to the findings. The research team’s extensive citations further support the reliability of the study.

For teachers, this research provides valuable insights into incorporating digital media into the classroom. Dr. Taylor emphasizes the importance of adult-child co-use of digital media to support children’s learning. Teachers can encourage active participation, select appropriate educational media, and educate parents on the benefits of engaging with children during screen time.

Overall, the study highlights the potential for digital media to be a valuable tool for early childhood education when used in conjunction with adult interaction. By actively engaging with children during screen time, parents and educators can turn a passive activity into a meaningful learning experience. Whether you’re a teacher guiding parents or a parent yourself, remember that your interaction with a child during screen time is key to enhancing their learning and building a strong connection. So, next time you use digital media with your child, consider it an opportunity to engage, educate, and inspire.
