Patricia Kuhl: Η γλωσσική ιδιοφυΐα των μωρών. The linguistic genius of babies


Patricia Kuhl:

Η γλωσσική ιδιοφυΐα των μωρών.

The linguistic genius of babies.



About this talk

At TEDxRainier, Patricia Kuhl shares astonishing findings about how babies learn one language over another -- by listening to the humans around them and "taking statistics" on the sounds they need to know. Clever lab experiments (and brain scans) show how 6-month-old babies use sophisticated reasoning to understand their world.

About Patricia Kuhl

Patricia Kuhl studies how we learn language as babies, looking at the ways our brains form around language acquisition. 

Why you should listen to her:

Patricia Kuhl is co-director of the Institute for Brain and Learning Sciences at the University of Washington. She's internationally recognized for her research on early language and brain development, and studies that show how young children learn. Kuhl’s work has played a major role in demonstrating how early exposure to language alters the brain. It has implications for critical periods in development, for bilingual education and reading readiness, for developmental disabilities involving language, and for research on computer understanding of speech.
