What is the role of eye contact and shared reference in a child's acquisition of language?
What will be an ideal response?
Eye contact and shared reference is a basic interaction pattern through which we begin communicating with children. Through eye contact and shared reference, objects and events are contemplated and become topics of conversation. When eye contact and shared reference are not established, communication often breaks down or is not even initiated as there is no clear common focus.
