| Abstract: |
The author discusses how educational goals are translated into the actual television programming of Sesame Street. Dr. Lesser serves as chairman of the National Board of Advisors to the Children's Television Workshop, which produces Sesame Street. He reflects here on the experience of researchers and television producers working together to develop television for children on the basis of knowledge (and hunches) about how children learn.
