LYNNE: That essay we have to write...the one onhow children learn through the media...how are youplanning to write it?
ROBIN: Well,I've given it some thought and I thinkthat the best way to approach it is to divide theessay into two parts.First of all,we'd have to look atsome examples of each type of media...
LYNNE: Yes,what they are...then we could describehow we can use each medium so that children canlearn something from each one.
ROBIN: Exactly.Maybe we could draw up a table and look at examples of each medium inturn.Let's see,the different forms of media would be...the print media...
LYNNE: Here you'd have things like books and newspapers,that sort of thing...
ROBIN: Um,and included in these arc the pictorial forms of print media,like maps...
LYNNE: Yes,maps are really just formal pictures,aren't they?And then there are what we callthe audio forms of media...where children can listen.CDs and radios are probably the bestexamples,because a lot of children have access to these...especially radios.
ROBIN: And this would lead into the audio-visual media,which can be seen as well asheard...film,television...and we mustn't forget videos.
