interaction by having characters
address viewers directly, asking
them questions, and having
them participate in saying
special phrases or cheers.
Mickey and his friends is a model
of teamwork, positive
interaction and encouragement
to others that’s why many
Filipino children loves this
animated show.
10. The series' unique mix of elements is a can't-miss
recipe: Take some of the world's most beloved
animated characters, and have them talk directly
to viewers and engage them in activities. Throw in
a magical, fanciful, shape-shifting clubhouse; an
exciting adventure; some elements of time-tested
fairy tales; and a few modern, computer-generated
gadgets to keep the show current. Add a dash of
CGI, with its vibrant colours and characters that
look as if they might jump off the screen at any
moment, and kids are sure to be hooked.
11. What's really great is that, in addition to the
dazzling visuals, the series keeps the viewer's brain
engaged almost continually -- there's always
something to count, find, identify, or compare.
Mickey is constantly in your face (in a good way) --
asking questions, acknowledging viewers' answers,
cheering them on, and giving kudos for a job well
done. He and his pals make each journey so much
fun that preschoolers will forget they're actually
working their brain.
12. The experience of watching television has been
competed against a lot of activities which a
viewer can do whatever want to do at the same
time. Each of the programs is compete against
to the other programs which are broadcasted
from other channels. The viewer can prefer
shifting to other program(s) or to daily another
activities instead of watching program if
television program does not present any
attracting or watchable subject for the viewer.
13. One of the important disadvantages of
television that it does not provide instant
feedback. It’’ s too hard to capture the viewers
reactions about the program. For this reason,
the producer does not have a chance to control
if the program is not watched by the viewer. In
the meantime, broadcast television isn’’ t
interactive. So that participating of the viewers
are getting low. Producer never forget these
important disadvantages when producing an
educational television program.
