Living in the Age of Airplanes
This video should appeal to casual viewers with an interest in airplanes. However, the information presented is so basic that the program's value in classroom settings is limited; suitable for public library collections.
The Boys of '36
This inspirational story is of primary interest to sports fans in this year of Olympic fever. However, most general viewers will find this a niche program.
Science Kids: Chemical Reactions
A quick introduction to basic chemistry concepts with an exciting approach, this is a good addition to middle school chemistry classrooms.
Iceman Reborn
An engaging program for those fascinated by the lives of prehistoric humans or interested in solving forensic mysteries. For school and public libraries.
Himalayan Megaquake
An examination of a recent disaster that illustrates real-world applications of science, this program should appeal to high school students interested in engineering, seismology, or humanitarian work.
The Bomb
The length may limit this program's usefulness in some classroom settings, though scene selections focus on specific subject matter (the race with Nazi Germany to develop the bomb or Soviet espionage).
K2: Siren of the Himalayas
Action-packed and inspiring, this is a riveting true-life adventure story for those interested in extreme sports and wilderness survival. However, the niche historical context and scant scientific information undermine its utility in a classroom, while the death scene and an instance of adult language during an avalanche might limit this to more mature viewers.
Operation Wild
While it makes overtures about the importance of conservation and respecting nature, the series overall would have limited use in a classroom setting due to its length and episodic format.
Antarctic Edge: 70° South
An educational adventure to one of Earth's last untamed frontiers, this is a convincing testament to the scientists' efforts to record the effects of environmental change in Antarctica.
