Young people in the United States are more alienated from American civic life than ever before in the nation's history, voting less and rarely participating in the affairs of their community. Citizen participation, de Tocqueville observed nearly 200 years ago, makes American democracy unique. The relationship of representative and participatory democracy in U.S. history, the necessity of combining self interest with civic virtue, and other issues related to democracy are explored in this timely series.

American students retain geography and history information better when they experience living images of world cultures. These programs about some of the world’s major countries help students understand other peoples’ environments, values, and significant historical contributions. They also feature information-rich maps that clarify geographical data such as a country’s global location, major regions, and important cities. The scripts and narrators reflect indigenous cultures, but each program uses language appropriate for North American classrooms.

This engaging five-part series encourages students to move beyond a simplified view of the environment to a deeper level of understanding: that the global ecosystem is made up of interdependent ecological communities populated with their own particular life-forms and vulnerable to damage by both natural forces and human activity. Viewable/printable instructor’s guides are available online. A Cambridge Educational Production. Correlates to the National Science Education Standards developed by the National Academies of Science, Project 2061 Benchmarks for Science Literacy from the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and the National Geography Standards from the National Geographic Society. 5-part series, 17-22 minutes each.

No science is more at the core of every technology that supports the seven billion people living on the planet today than chemistry. Chemistry is at the base of the foods, medicines, fuels and materials that are the hallmarks of modern life. Core Chemistry presents how each branch of chemistry - physical chemistry, organic chemistry and biochemistry - evolved from a clear understanding of the principles and laws of chemical interactions. Topics Include:
2 Million B.C. to 1661 - Ancient Chemistry - Chemistry is both science and art. The art began with the first humans and the discovery of fire. It proceeded through metallurgy. Though discovered probably through accident, the discovery of bronze, iron, glass and gunpowder transformed all civilizations they touched. But before civilizations could progress any further toward modern societies they had to understand the atomic nature of matter. This started with Robert Boyle and his denunciation of the medieval alchemist.
1800 - Electrolysis Reveals Water is not Elemental- Since the Greeks’alchemists held the theory that matter was made up of four elements - fire, earth, air and water. But a series of brilliant experiments at the end of the 18th century showed that none of these were elemental. Of particular interest was the separation of water into hydrogen and oxygen gases.
1808 - Atomic Theory of Matter is Announced - The conceptual breakthrough that chemists were looking for was provided by John Dalton when he proposed that matter was made up of tiny elements that he called atoms.
1828 - Organic Chemistry - When it was demonstrated that a special life force, known as 'the vital life force,' was not part of organic material, it opened the door for a whole new branch of chemistry - organic chemistry. This section defines organic chemistry and shows how the discovery of polymers, which led to the world of plastics, and bioengineering.
1869 - The First Periodic Table - The greatest discovery in all of chemistry was Mendeleev's period table of the elements. This section shows in clear detail how the over 100 elements are arranged into predictable groups which for the basis of all chemical interactions.
1945 to Present - Catalysts and New Chemicals - In order to create the modern world of chemistry we all rely on today, chemists had to overcome the slowness of nature's chemical reactions and interactions. This was accomplished through the discovery of catalysts and biocatalysts, called enzymes. The result was the creation of over a million new chemicals a year in the 21st century.

This series provide comprehensive, contextualized support for developing writing skills at the middle school level. Episodes can be used within and across curriculum areas to support many different applications of writing, from lyrics to persuasion to technical reports. In each program, students are challenged to approach a writing assignment in a different way. Strategies for organizing information and structuring personal schedules to complete the assignments are depicted. Contextual real-life settings where different writing styles are employed are carefully woven into the stories.
1) Writing a Research Paper- Writing Club members learn to research, write, revise, and pu publish their research papers.
2) Persuasive Writing- Students enter a writing contest that challenges them to create persuasive essays.
3) Descriptive Writing - The Writing Club is assigned to find a place and to describe it so that the readers will feel as if they have been there.
4) Expository Writing - The students study elephants and write an essay explaining why these animals have been brought to this country.

No matter how big or small, the community is a place we all share. There are several types of communities and many different community helpers. This eleven-part series shows seven of the helpers on whom we depend. Each community helper tells what he or she does and how their services relate to children’s lives. Five programs show children how history, size and geography reveal differences and similarities in communities, and how rules and work help communities serve most people's needs. Each program begins with a lively title sequence, featuring a rhymed introduction to the basic concepts of community.
