The brew continues in Joint Attention Part II. Mike and Dan review research on the correlation between joint attention, imitation, language development (verbal/vocal behavior) and play. From this, they focus on a specific research-based method designed to promote joint attention--namely following a point (both proximal and distal) as well as gaze shift, then leading others with point and gaze shift. The idea of joint attention as a constant mode of presentation, along with contingent imitation and linguistic mapping, in creating a dynamic, child-directed, play-based environment is elaborated. This allows for more and more adult-directed instruction as needed toward specific targets and goals, like imitation, while maintaining the most important motivating operation--play.
Sip slowly, enjoy a fresh taste from the tap. And always analyze responsibly.
