Studying individuals with natural resistance to HIV has led to insights into the infection process and may produce new treatments or a vaccine. This session explores recent developments in the study of HIV and AIDS, the future global impact of the current infection levels, and the ethical issues surrounding current research and treatments.
I Spy - Max, when playing "I Spy" with Bo and Karla, feels like he can't keep up. Mama shows him that not only is it okay to move more slowly (especially if you're an elephant), but there's a whole world of things to see when you're not zipping around like a zebra (or a cheetah). Eyes, Ears, Noses and Trunks - Playing "Kick the Coconut" Bo, Max and Karla meet a friendly Fruit Bat named Merlin. He's really good at the game, which, until then, had been Bo's best game. Mama shows the gang a movie about "echolocation," as a way of introducing the other senses. As a result, the kids.

Systems of synchronization occur throughout the animate and inanimate world. The regular beating of the human heart, the swaying and near collapse of the Millennium Bridge, the simultaneous flashing of gangs of fireflies in Southeast Asia: these varied phenomena all share the property of spontaneous synchronization. This unit shows how synchronization can be analyzed, studied, and modeled via the mathematics of differential equations, an outgrowth of calculus, and the application of these ideas toward understanding the workings of the heart.
The conventional notion of dimension consists of three degrees of freedom: length, width, and height, each of which is a quantity that can be measured independently of the others. Many mathematical objects, however, require more

This episode of GED Connection takes a look at patterns and shows how to solve problems by looking for constant relationships. It also takes a look at how to display solutions on a coordinate plane. The program starts out by looking at the kinds of patterns and how to look for common threads within patterns. It then explains how to plot points on a grid and defines such terms as an ordered pair, x-axis, y-axis, origin, solution set, and slope. It shows how to graph an equation and how to compare one equation to another by looking at graphs. This episode explains that the ability to recognize patterns is a math skill. When you get stuck on a problem look for patterns that can help you find solutions, and look for patterns among solutions to see the bigger picture.
