2-004 - Developer Meets Developmentalist: Panel on Industry-Academic Partnerships

Session Type: Invited Roundtable

Integrative Statement

The goal of this panel, comprised of leading experts in their fields, is to explore how educational media across media platforms (television, digital platforms, Apps, etc.) are developed to meet the educational learning objectives of products designed from children. The panelists will discuss their respective “production models” for how they integrate current research findings from how children learn, as well as instructional learning design principles. This 90-minute panel is designed to give a “behind the scenes” glimpse into the development process and will allow time for the participants to interact with the panel.
