Really enjoyed presenting on this panel. Such a complementary lineup of work!

[Nancy Jennings @jennings_nancy]

Such an outstanding panel with @ProfShina @VeraHawkins @AnneMarieKMC and @mccall_booth at #NCA2022 #NCA22

[Fashina Aladé @ProfShina]

In this experimental study, we tested whether the zoom experience, specifically whether kids could see themselves on screen during a story read-aloud, impacted kindergartners' story comprehension. Surprisingly, it didn't! But distraction, whether on or off screen, was a problem.

[Fashina Aladé @ProfShina]

Excited to share a new article that I worked on with @LauricellaPhD. This study represents one of those major research "pivots" many of us had to do during the pandemic, but ended up being a lot of fun and a bit surprising!
