Explains what is normal for boys and girls at puberty: the biological facts of physical maturation, the timeline for growth for both sexes, the normal feelings of self-consciousness, the need for good personal hygiene, why mood swings happen, and preparation of the body for human sexuality and reproduction.
The engine's job is to convert the energy in fuel to speed. With the application of scientific principles, NASCAR mechanics have discovered ways to quickly and efficiently get the race cars the speed they need to compete. Part of "The Science of Speed" series.
Host Alex Dainis highlights the uses and history of parafilm. It is commonly used in health care, pharmaceutical, and research laboratories for covering or sealing vessels such as flasks, cuvettes, test tubes, beakers, Petri dishes, and more. Scientists and researchers use it in the lab since it is ductile, malleable, nontoxic, and self-sealing.
Nourish is an educational initiative designed to open a meaningful conversation about food and sustainability, particularly in schools and communities. In this clip, health food advocate Anna Lappé explains how farmers use practices that are sustainable and protect the environment. Part of the Nourish Short Films Series.
It takes more than ten thousand pounds of force to get a race car around the turns of the race track. The tires are essential in distributing this force and keeping the car on the track and out of the wall. Part of "The Science of Speed" series.
Nourish is an educational initiative designed to open a meaningful conversation about food and sustainability, particularly in schools and communities. In this clip, author Michael Pollan discusses the positive impacts to the environment when consumers eat locally grown foods. Part of the Nourish Short Films Series.
Features both male and female students discussing how hormones trigger the new social and emotional changes experienced during puberty. Covers self-esteem, body image, conflicts with parents, desire for independence, development of romantic feelings, bullying, and the need to treat each other with respect.
Fly into this high-tech career and learn about satellites, airplanes, and maybe even flying cars of the future. Aerospace engineering is the primary field of engineering concerned with the development of aircraft and spacecraft. Part of the "I Can Be Anything I Want to Be A to Z" series.
Where is nature in the middle of a ctiy made of buildings, streets, cars, and many people? Eight-year-old Lee takes a tour of his neighborhood, pointing out the various places plants and animals are found. He notes that weather is nature too, and certainly impacts his community. Nature is all around . . . just look!
Self-taught scientists and engineers, Wilbur and Orville Wright taught the world how to fly and are one of America’s greatest success stories. Their first successful flight, on North Carolina's Outer Banks, took place in December 1903. Next, they returned to Dayton, Ohio and continued to develop and test the world's first practical airplane.
Part of the "American Tall Tales & Legends" series. An American pioneer nurseryman, Johnny Appleseed introduced apple trees to large parts of America. He is an American legend because of his kind and generous ways, his great leadership in conservation, and his use and explanation of the symbolic importance of apples.
In this episode, Jack Hanna is counting down animals that count on each other. He highlights birds that groom buffalo, lions that feed jackals, and catfish that are fed by bats. These are just a few of the symbiotic relationships between animals.
Host Jessica Robertson travels across North and South Carolina to gather questions about climate change. Scientists from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) provide the answers and information on how to learn more about climate change.
Glaciers are melting, sea levels are rising, and the weather is becoming more extreme. Corporations talk about optimizing resource use, saving energy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions to stop worsening climate change. They start to promote hybrid cars, plant-based detergents and new technologies… but how much do they really intend to change, and what do plants have to do with marketing?
Examines the nuclear disaster that followed an earthquake and tsunami that rocked Japan on March 11, 2011. That day, Japan was hit with the fifth strongest earthquake ever recorded. The earthquake was followed by a tsunami which caused a nuclear disaster at Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant. This documentary details the chain of errors and oversights that led to the largest nuclear accident since Chernobyl.
Grip is the frictional force that holds the tires on the track, and NASCAR mechanics are always looking for ways to increase the grip of tires. The cars have less grip as their speed increases, and mechanics must understand the relationship between speed and grip to ensure the race car is able to perform safely at high rates of speed. Part of "The Science of Speed" series.
In 2008, NASCAR driver Michael McDowell lost control of his car and hit the wall at 170 mph. Fortunately, McDowell was able to walk away from the accident, which is a testament to the safety elements NASCAR has instituted. NASCAR officials apply the scientific principle of the conservation of energy to strengthen their safety measures. Part of "The Science of Speed" series.
Stress has many causes. Some typical stressors include daily life hassles and major life events. Regardless of the cause, the human body exhibits psychological responses to stress depending on how it perceives a situation. Viewers will explore the transactional model of stress and coping as well as how cognitive appraisal of experiences impacts stress. Part of the "Psychology Concepts" series.
