| View the following video, which highlights The Abecedarian Study with Dr. Joseph Sparling, PhD, and shows how underprivileged children can have increased intelligence and cognitive learning ability when their education starts very early in their lives. Your textbook discusses the Abecedarian Study, as well as Head Start. Based on this information, do you think that our Head Start program provides the best return on our federal dollar investment, compared to the results reported by the Abecedarian Study? The costs are very different, but the outcomes appear to be worlds apart, as well. Head Start is geared toward 3- to 4-year-olds, and the Abecedarian Study targeted children from birth. Post your original response, which must be a minimum of 150 words, but also post a response to at least one of your classmates for full credit. Link- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YyZ8FkFsK4 |
