Do you think children can learn something
from TV programs?
Yes I definitely believe that children can
learn something from TV programs. Many children like watching cartoons and
animation. Even though that programs are for children, That contents have a
their own massage such as “importance of living together”, “lie is bad thing”.
Moreover they tell their stories easily so children can understand well.
What do you think are the negative influences
that children can acquire from the media?
Children can be exposed to a lot of bad
contents as much as the good there. So they can see some violent or sexual
programs easily. When they see harmful scene of some programs, there is a possibility
that they will follow whatever they have seen in the media because they can’t
distinguish the difference between rights and wrongs well.
In school, can media be used as an
educational tool?
Base on my experience, media can be used as
an educational tool. When I was a child, our school used educational TV
programs such as science, history and foreign languages and I could understand
more easily.
What types of technology are used in
schools?
Many schools use different kinds of
technology for teaching. I guess the most useful type of technology is
computer. We can access diverse and useful source for learning and also we can
understand effectively.
How does media attract children towards
toys?
The media use familiar, sensational and
visual components to attract children. I guess that’s why many children think
cartoon characters as their friends.
