Education Development Center, Inc. (EDC) and SRI International conducted an independent study of the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) KIDS "Play & Learn Science" app, which includes in-app and direct hands-on science explorations for children ages 3 to 6 and their parents. This study explored the impact of the PBS KIDS "Play & Learn Science" app, when used in a supportive context, on: (1) children's understanding of science concepts and use of science and engineering practices; children's use of science vocabulary; (2) child and parent-child engagement in science and engineering; and (3) parent confidence supporting their child's science learning. Findings suggest that when used in a supported context, the PBS KIDS "Play & Learn Science" app can benefit both children and their parents. [The PBS KIDS "Play & Learn Science" app was developed as part of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) Ready To Learn Initiative, funded by the U.S. Department of Education.] |
