Long Description:
Children possess two educational technologies: Story and Play. These are the tools they use to interact, lean, and develop both physiologically and psychologically. Popular culture can have a great influence on their development for better or worse. This seminar will examine how stories like those found in Star Trek, with their pro-social messages, can help a child develop empathy, confidence, bravery, and compassion.
