Sesame Street Yields Dramatic Pre School Gains
New York officials report preliminary studies from the Sesame Street Workshop showing dramatic learning gains among 132 preschoolers from low income homes and broad distribution in New York inner city areas. Researchers note improved letter recognition logic sorting and counting with regular viewers advancing more than non viewers. The program reaches about 2 million daily viewers with efforts to expand access in day care centers and Head Start programs amid ongoing nationwide testing.
