Calling all parents & guardians. We'd love to know your thoughts on your kids' TV watching habits in the streaming era!!! 📣 We'd appreciate 10-15 mins of your time for the 2023 instalment of our Parents' survey as part of our research with @OzKidsTV swinuw.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_es…
A reminder to any current and former teachers, we want to hear from you about if and how you use TV in the classroom! ow.ly/g2tu50P7bZ1
If you are or ever have been a teacher, please take a moment to fill in our survey on your thoughts and use of kids' TV in the classroom 👇 📺
Woohoo, go team! Congrats to all involved, a big win for spooky kids' TV 👻
Calling all teachers! Please fill out our @_ACTC_ survey seeking to find out about how (and if!) you use TV in the classroom 👇

For @crikey_news, I draw on our @_ACTC_ research - primarily my study on how kids' use streaming platforms - to highlight the need for creative thinking about 'smart' TV policy. 👇 Gov consultation is underway, so the time is NOW to reimagine our kids' TV policy landscape @RMIT

Do your kids still watch free-to-air TV? I spoke to the ABC about the serendipity of live Kids TV and our @_ACTC_ research with parents who don't bother to fix their antennas. @SwinHASS abc.net.au/everyday/what-…
Our @_ACTC_ research found that #Bluey was the No. 1 show that Aussie parents watch with their kids and that co-viewing takes place at the weekend. So it’s great that new #Bluey has moved to Sunday mornings making it easier for families to co-watch actcresearch.com/project-outcom…
Interesting research about what Australians are watching in this steaming dominated era, which compliments some key findings from our Parents' Survey and Report! actcresearch.com/project-outcom…
