What a great way to enjoy school. Remember that feeling you\\\\\\\'d get when you\\\\\\\'d walk into class and see the TV set sitting in the middle of the room? Excitement that you wouldn\\\\\\\'t have to do anything but watch TV for 15 minutes or half an hour. That you could actually learn something watching TV contrary to what your parents were telling you, and hear some pretty cool prog rock influenced music also (For all you music fans)
I Wish there were more TV shows like this for kids to watch today. Kids today have nothing to learn from that\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s interesting anymore. They could watch japanimation all day and not learn a thing because they\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'re too interested in the cool drawings instead of the underlying story.moreless
Show Summary
EDIT
For ten years, a group in Bloomington, Indiana called AIT had been producing "consortia" series for public television. These were instructional series developed by a consortium of state and provincial education agencies. Their names are legendary: Ripples, Inside Out, Self Incorporaed and Trade-offs. But with 1979 came AIT's magnum opus. Welcome to the ThinkAbout guide at TV Tome. All the skills essential to learning that AIT had cultivated over a decade were poured into ThinkAbout, and many men and women helped in completing this master series. Producers included the Educational Film Center in Virginia, Alberta-based Access, TVO in Toronto (sometimes with help from The Film Works), KERA Unlimited in Dallas, KOCE in Huntington Beach, the Utah State Board of Education, KETC in St. Louis, and the growing South Carolina ETV Network. Together they created these master lessons that defined everything the AIT originally stood for. The content of ThinkAbout was developed by a consortium of more than 40 state and provincial educational agencies, working with the late Larry Walcoff in the AIT code: "Together, serving education."moreless
