We all require food, air, and water to survive — which are contaminated to some extent by man-made pollutants. Two studies, one in a rural western mining town and another in a dense urban population, reveal how these exposures impact health, and what can be done to reduce the risks.
Curtain Up! - When the kids decide to put on a show, Mama shows them a series of movies depicting different animal "acts," reminding us that everybody has talents (and animals are really fun to watch). Listen Up! - Karla and Bo are having a disagreement over an animal that they have just seen. Bo claims it was some kind of giraffe, and Karla is sure that it was a zebra.

Connections can be physical, as with bridges, or immaterial, as with friendships. Both types of connections can be understood using the same mathematical framework called network theory, or graph theory, which is a way to abstract and quantify the notion of connectivity. This unit looks at how this branch of mathematics provides insights into extremely complicated networks such as ecosystems.
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 focuses on Data Analysis. During the program the viewer learns how to read and interpret data on charts and graphs and how to find averages. The GED test may require those taking it to interpret numeric information from graphs that use picture and symbols. A key or a legend is provided to find out what the symbols mean. The types of graphs that are covered in this program are bar or column graphs and circle or pie graphs. Graphs are used to simplify information and it is encouraged that understanding what the graph is representing is more important than what type of graph it is. This program also covers tables, which are used to organize data to help the user locate information easily. This program also covers mean, median, and mode.
