  • Representations of Diversity in the Children's Educational Television
    Who are the People in your Neighborhood? Representations of Diversity in the Children’s Educational Television Show Sesame Street Veronica Hauad EDUP&L 834 – MON/WED 1:30pm The goal of this lesson is to help students assess the representation of racial and ethnic diversity (or total lack thereof) in media. This specific lesson will address the representation of diversity in the children’s educational television show Sesame Street. Overview More than ever, very young children are watching television. They are watching on the weekends, after school, and sometimes even in the classroom as a means of learning. If television is going to play such an important part in the lives of children, it is imperative that parents and educators highlight the television shows that will be the most beneficial for their children to watch. Ideally television shows geared toward young children would be as educational as possible, both in the traditional school sense as well as culturally educational. Since the show’s inception, the creators of Sesame Street have strived to provide both kinds of education. Sesame Street first aired in 1969. The creators of the show developed Sesame Street with the goal of improving school readiness in urban socioeconomically disadvantaged children. Segments highlighted the introduction of letters of the alphabet, numbers, and shapes and colors. But the show was also designed to promote positive images of diversity. The show’s creators hoped that positive media representations of racial and ethnic minorities would not only boost cultural pride and self-confidence, but they would also enhance awareness and understanding.

Praise for Secretsand The Insidefrom Secrets Sesame of Sesame Street’s Street Pioneers This book was reviewed at the 22nd Annual Writer’s Digest Self-Published Book Awards. The judge rated the following areas “outstanding:” structure, organization, pacing, spelling, punctuation, grammar, voice, and writing style. Here is an excerpt from the judge’s commentary. THIS BOOK contains an enormous amount of background information on Sesame Street, doubtless one of the most successful children’s shows in broadcasting history. The show is over 45 years old. The focus is placed on the pioneers of the show and how they came up with the concept and all the research involved. One can also read about performers, puppeteers, writers, directors, etc. Personalities like Jim Henson and other key figures provide enlightening nuggets. The creation and development of such familiar characters as the Muppets, Kermit the Frog, and Big Bird is particularly interesting. Chapters detail how the educational role of the show was sustained as well as its fantasy element. The material also covers the writing element, how to keep the show fresh, seeking new material and subjects, and judging audience reactions. One section covers the production of the popular show in other countries including Russia. There are also references about the show including advice to parents on allocation of TV viewing time [for] children and material on Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood… Copyright © 2013, 2016, 2021 Dr.

  • “Sesame Street” and the Media
    “SESAME STREET” AND THE MEDIA: THE ENVIRONMENTS, FRAMES, AND REPRESENTATIONS CONTRIBUTING TO SUCCESS A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Communication of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Science by Stephanie A. Hay June 2003 This thesis entitled “Sesame Street” and the Media: The Environments, Frames and Representations Contributing to Success by Stephanie Anne Hay has been approved for the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism and the College of Communication by Bernhard Debatin Associate Professor of Journalism Kathy Krendl Dean of the College of Communication HAY, STEPHANIE ANNE. M.S. June 2003. Journalism “Sesame Street” and the Media: Environments, Frames, and Representations Contributing to Success. (142 pp.) Director of Thesis: Bernhard Debatin Television to viewers of all ages in the 1960s was a budding medium, and children by 1961 proved to be a loyal—and later profitable—target audience for networks. But debates appeared questioning whether or not children’s television negatively influenced its young viewers. “Sesame Street” debuted in 1969 and quickly became the most successful children’s program in television history. Its production continues today. The thesis, in its entirety, found that “Sesame Street” happened “in the right place at the right time.” It found that the show was an exception to a plethora of the low- quality, violent, and commercial children’s programming that print media characterized before its debut; was overwhelmingly supported after its debut by print media, political figures and public audiences; was overwhelmingly framed positively by authors of articles who pinned traditional educators fearing television may replace their roles against “Sesame Street” creators in a public debate over the show’s merits; and was changed over the past three decades in response to vocal opinions about the characters’ representations of gender, race, and class.
