I am often asked to speak to the question, "Is preschool programming educational?" As cited in this inspiring chapter, study after study has proven that, if created with the intent to teach and by utilizing the tenets of educational preschool curriculum, media can indeed have an immediate and lasting effect on education. Even still, parents want reassurance. Therefore, studies like this one by Linebarger, Brey, Fenstermacher, and Barr, help to break down the questions and provide insight as to what makes educational television truly educational.
