Interactive Educational learning never moved past the television nor the 00's and it's sad.
00's was a dark era for the UK with operation yewtree with discovering that many child tv presenters were doing unspeakable acts to children. That was the start of the decline of kids TV.
Shows still exist but are so heavy watered-down in what they can say or do you don't get the same effect.
Educational video games were never popular either. Word rescue, Maths rescue, Fun School; taught me english and maths, I found them fun but its a genre that never sells. I have never been a TV person and I still struggle to sit and watch TV.
My concern is that kids are now growing up with a mobile phone in their hands but the device lacks in educational learning. That's not to say there are not educational apps but most don't feel the same quality and standard as television once produced.
- TedDoesntTalk 5y agoKhan Academy Kids is pretty good, but the content only lasts maybe a week. It is very repetitive, and I know that’s for reinforcement, but it feels like they just ran out of content because there’s nothing new. Anyone have other suggestions for apps?
