She was previously the director of research for the Learner Variability Project at Digital Promise, where she developed public resources on the cognitive, socio-emotional, and background factors that impact learning. This work involved research translation, science communication, and studies of educational efficacy with school districts and ed tech product developers. She has also served as a Learning Sciences Exchange fellow through New America, working across sectors to promote early learning and help young children and their families thrive. Tare earned her PhD in developmental psychology at the University of Michigan and her BA in cognitive science and English at Rutgers University.  \nElizabeth Rood, EdD  \nElizabeth Rood is an education adviser, researcher, and writer with expertise in youth development, learning, and participatory program design. She is the founder and principal of Learning Designs Consulting, which provides advisory services in educational media and experiential learning.

She was previously vicepresident of education at the Bay Area Discovery Museum and director of the Center for Childhood Creativity, the research arm of the museum. She also served as president of the Bay Area Chapter of the Children’s Media Association.  \nThe Joan Ganz Cooney Center is an independent research and innovation lab within Sesame Workshop that advances positive futures for kids in the digital world. We conduct research on emerging technologies and collaborate with technologists, digital media producers, and educators to put this research into action to support children’s learning and well-being. We facilitate an international network of researchers and partner with young people themselves, elevating their voices in our research and engaging them in co-designing digital media experiences. We also work directly with policymakers and investors to drive national conversations and decisions that help children thrive.  \nSuggeSted citAtion  \nTare, M., & Rood, E. (2023).

Yet many questions about the use and widespread adoption of these emerging technologies remain. To share insights, opportunities, and challenges, the Joan Ganz Cooney Center at Sesame Workshop and the XR Association (XRA) hosted Immersive Media and Learning, a one-day forum in 2022, to explore the use of XR technologies in high school settings.  \nThis report documents and synthesizes key takeaways from the forum.
