PBS Special on the brain TONIGHT!

Submitted by an LD OnLine user on

“Part 1 details how early in the life process the development of brain cells begins in “The Baby’s Brain:Wider than the Sky/The Child’s Brain: Syllable form Sound.” The first year of a human’s existence shapes it through external input. Learning disorders such as dyslexia are also examined in this special.”

Do you know what the schedule for airing of the other parts of the series? I could not make it all the way through the 1st part and I believe a video can be ordered. I was interested in the second part which appeared to be dealing with language delays.

My understanding is that it will air for 5 weeks, I assume on the same night (Tuesday 9-11). Yes, the second part of this first episode dealt with language delays. It touched on dyslexia as well. And they do give a number to order the videos.
