  • A Digital Training Program Fostering Media Sign Literacy in Preschool Children. An Evaluation Study

    Open Access•Yvonne Gerigk, Franziska Freudenberger et al.•ARTICLE•Media Psychology•2026

    Despite the increasing importance of media literacy for preschool children, no scientifically proven measure exists for the training of this skill. We therefore designed a digital training program for 4- to 5-year-old children to promote the development of media sign literacy (MSL), namely, the ability to understand the symbol systems used to organize media. The program consisted of 10 sessions on a tablet, which focused on different parts of bas…

  • Preschoolers’ knowledge acquisition from German educational media: The impact of a training program fostering media sign literacy

    Open Access•Marie Sophie Hunze, Franziska Freudenberger et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Children and Media•2025

    Evidence shows that the first component of media literacy to develop in children is media sign literacy (MSL), an ability that focuses on the understanding and correct use of the signs and symbol systems that organize different media. Previous research has shown that MSL is a significant predictor of learning from media. In this study, we investigated the impact of a self-developed tablet-based MSL training on children’s knowledge acquisition fro…

  • Training of media sign literacy and intelligence: Effects on preschoolers’ cognitive skills

Based on this empirical finding, a tablet-based training program to enhance MSL was developed. In a pretest-posttest experiment involving 152 preschoolers, this training program was compared with an active control group, using a digital inductive reasoning (IR) training, and a passive…
