- Dr. Pat Kuhl gets to the root of how we communicate and learn by uncovering how early exposure to language alters the brain. Her research on early language and brain development, and how young children learn, has implications across multiple areas -- critical periods in child development, bilingual education and reading readiness, developmental disabilities involving language, and research on computer understanding of speech.
At the University of Washington, Dr. Kuhl is the Bezos Family Foundation Endowed Chair for Early Childhood Learning, Co-Director of the UW Institute for Learning & Brain Sciences, Director of the University of Washington's National Science Foundation Science of Learning Center, and Professor of Speech and Hearing Sciences. In 1997, she presented at President and Mrs. Clinton's Conference on "Early Learning and the Brain." In 2001, she returned to present at President and Mrs. Bush's White House Summit on "Early Cognitive Development: Ready to Read, Ready to Learn." In her co-authored book, The Scientist in the Crib: Minds, Brains, and How Children Learn, Dr. Kuhl reviews what is now known about children's minds and how they learn, as well as how babies recognize, understand and take part in the building of their own brains.
TEDxRainier is an independently produced TED event held in Seattle Washington.

Thank you for sharing this with the world! I am so thrilled to see modern science that supports what Dr. Maria Montessori described as the sensitive period for language. :)
"What did we do to their little brains?"
Brilliant.
love the new slide with /l/ and /r/ distributions!
Really good presentation.
I found this so interesting. I am working on my masters in ECE and I have my ESL endorsement. I want to learn more about teaching children to be bi-lingual from birth. I think that if we could do that it would help our world. There is so much anger in this country about the amount of money we spend on helping individuals learn English as they come into America. I do not believe it would be the same if all children had the opportunity to speak more than one language.
Awesome...........
this is amazing, I like how this prove the importance of human contact to learn any language, Specially with deaf children, in my country 98% children who have born deaf have hearing fathers who do not speek with them in sign language because phisician recommed them not to do it because they believe signs are no any language at all. So this children lose the criticla period to learn naturally language.
is the audience drunk? randomly laughing out loud lol great video though really interesting and insightful
@scorpionboy3 You are really reading a lot into to this that does not apply. This is not about YOU, but about what is happening in the brains of young children (so that we do make decisions that might impede their progress). YOU can learn all the new languages you want! But you will be basing it on your past experiences and your knowledge of how language works. Babies don't have that. And, they are not only learning language, but how to walk, to control their bodies, think, etc.
REALLY THOUGH? troll.
Adults are much better at learning languages than children. Give me the time a baby takes to learn a language and I´ll show who is better at it. Believe this if you want, and you´ll have an excuse to not learn another language.Oh well i´m past my prime time for language acquisition, no use now. Utter BS!
"Take statistics" . . . what exactly does that mean? This woman is a teacher? I'm guessing that she is inferring that babies take an unconscious count of like syllabus and phonemes, and the ones used the most are the ones paid most attention to, and therefore used to acquire language? This woman pisses me off.
It's interesting that you're upset at her for using a word that you don't feel applies to the abilities of a baby, yet you went on to describe what she meant by that exactly.
5:38 wow, again. we have a DOCTOR who is studying language and she doesn't even know how to speak it properly herself ! what a faux pas ! obviously, as I learned in middle school, her sentence, properly stated should be "depending upon to whom they are speaking" not "depending upon who they are speaking to."
this is just disgraceful on her part.
1:15 seriously lady, I have never even attended college, but at least I know correct English which was taught in 7th grade. let me correct you: "by speaking to you and me". (not "by speaking to you and I".) Why you used a subjective pronoun is beyond me. to elucidate, take away "you" from the sentence (since adding one person doesn't change anything) you would be saying "by speaking to I." yeah, do you see now? that's clearly not right. come on doc, get your shit together. 7th grade English.
Are you sure it is not a dialectial feature?
It is obvious that you never attended college. It is quite common to start sentences with a capital letter. This is something that one learns in primary school. In which case I can only concur that you didn't even attend primary school.
