Question

Language development is an important developmental milestone for the infancy period. Over the years, there have been a lot of suggestions for parents about language development and how best to promote it in children. The videos below highlight the results of research in this area with important "take home" messages for parents and educators who work with young children. After watching the videos (a total of about 16 minutes), respond to the reflection questions listed below (a few sentences for each question should suffice): According to Dr. Patricia Kuhl's research, briefly explain why young infants (6-8 months of age) are "primed" to acquire language? What are they picking up on and processing about language early in life that they later lose the ability to differentiate? Dr. Kuhl's research highlights work on infants abilities to learn two languages. Based on the results of this work, would you recommend parents raise children in a bilingual household to help promote language development? (be sure to explain/justify your answer) Based on the results of BOTH Dr. Kuhl's and Dr. Deloache's research studies, what advice would you give to parents about the use of videos or DVDs for promoting and learning language during the infancy period? (be sure to explain/justify your answer)
