Interactions

We observe kids ages 8-18 as they interact with their friends, parents, teachers, in different environments such as classroom and home, while playing games, doing homework, and describing their likes and dislikes.

A kid's life is put into perspective when you spend a day with them. Here is an example of a summer day with Johnnie.

An urban, public school class.

Watching kids as they maneuver through school, which is a highly social and yet educational environment, gives us in-depth understanding of their social interactions, as well as their achievements and frustrations.

We videotape kids working at the non-play things that interest them. This research helps us understand the ways that kids go about learning and improving.
