MRS. CLINTON POSES A QUESTION TO DR. PHILLIPS:
This study tells us that children do learn from television, but it might be
helpful to understand why they learn. Dr. Robert Phillips from the
American Psychiatric Association is with us, and at earlier discussions
on this topic I have been struck by his insights into the power of
television on children. Dr. Phillips, can you explain why the television
can be such a powerful teaching tool?
Dr. Robert Phillips responds.
MRS. CLINTON POSES A QUESTION TO KATHLEEN HALL
JAMIESON:
Another recent study that shed new light on the state of children's
television was conducted by the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the
University of Pennsylvania under the direction of Kathleen Hall
Jamieson. In addition, Dr. Jamieson recently announced the creation of
a blue ribbon group to review programs designed for children and to
identify those that do the best job.
Kathleen, you are immersed in this issue, what new information on the-
positive influence of television do you find most surprising?
Kathleen Hall Jamieson responds.
[Jamieson is a Professor of Communications and Dean of the
Annenberg School for Communications at the University of
Pennsylvania. She worked with Peggy Charren to propose an
Annenberg Blue Ribbon Commission to judge the quality of
children's educational programs; the Vice President attended
their press conference announcing this Commission. The
premise of the Commission is that with a respected independent
third party involved, parents will be able to get information
about program quality, and the FCC can rely on experts and
independent sources to determine whether programs are truly
educational.]
