The challenge of freedom. [Episode 4]","","55 minutes","['Slavery and the making of America']","Episode four looks at Civil War and Reconstruction through the experiences of South Carolina slave Robert Smalls. It chronicles Smalls' daring escape to freedom, his military service, and his tenure as a congressman after the war. As the events of Smalls' life unfold, the complexities of this period in American history are revealed. The episode shows the transformation of the war from a struggle for union to a battle over slavery. It examines the black contribution to the war effort and traces the gains and losses of newly freed African Americans during Reconstruction. The 13th amendment abolished slavery in 1865, the 14th and 15th amendments guaranteed black civil rights, and the Freedmen's Bureau offered aid to former slaves throughout the 1870s. Yet simultaneously, the formation of militant groups, such as the Ku Klux Klan threatened the future of racial equality and segregation laws began to appear across the country. Slavery's eradication had not brought an end to black oppression. About the series: Slavery and the making of America is a four-part series documenting the history of American slavery from its beginnings in the British colonies to its end in the Southern states and the years of post-Civil War Reconstruction. Drawing on a wealth of recent scholarship, it looks at slavery as an integral part of a developing nation, challenging the long held notion that slavery was exclusively a Southern enterprise.

Simultaneously, slavery in the Southern United States entered the period of its greatest expansion. Episode three, which starts at the beginning of the 1800s, examines slavery's increasing divisiveness in America as the nation develops westward and cotton replaces tobacco as the country's most valuable crop. The episode weaves national events through the personal histories of two African American slaves -- Harriet Jacobs and Louis Hughes -- who not only managed to escape bondage, but also exposed the horrific realities of the slave experience in autobiographical narratives. These and other stories of physical, psychological, and sexual exploitation fed the fires of a reinvigorated abolitionist movement. With a diverse membership comprised Watch a preview of men and women, blacks and whites, and led by figures including Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, and Amy Post, abolitionist sentiment gathered strength in the North, contributing to the widening fissure and imminent break-up of the nation.

As the slave population reproduced, American planters became less dependent on the African slave trade.

Episode two follows the paths of several African Americans, including Thomas Jefferson's slave Jupiter, Colonel Tye, Elizabeth Freeman, David Walker, and Maria Stewart, as they respond to the increasingly restrictive system of slavery. At the core of this episode is the Revolutionary War, an event which reveals the contradictions of a nation seeking independence while simultaneously denying freedom to its black citizens.

The downward spiral. [Episode 1]","","55 minutes","['Slavery and the making of America']","Episode one opens in the 1620s with the introduction of 11 men of African descent and mixed ethnicity into slavery in New Amsterdam. Working side by side with white indentured servants, these men labored to lay the foundations of the Dutch colony that would later become New York. There were no laws defining the limitations imposed on slaves at this point in time. Enslaved people, such as Anthony d'Angola, Emmanuel Driggus, and Frances Driggus could bring suits to court, earn wages, and marry. But in the span of a hundred years, everything changed. By the early 18th century, the trade of African slaves in America was expanding to accommodate an agricultural economy growing in the hands of ambitious planters. After the 1731 Stono Rebellion (a violent uprising led by a slave named Jemmy) many colonies adopted strict ""black codes"" transforming the social system into one of legal racial oppression.

Touch the sky. Part four","","55 minutes","['Black America since MLK']","The final hour brings the story up to the present day. As the 21st Century dawned, the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina came as a wake-up call, revealing that the black poor were still grappling with issues that the civil rights movement set out to resolve decades earlier. After this sobering revelation, Senator Barack Obama's announcement that he would run for President sparked a wave of hope that the country might at last be ready for real change. Voters of all races carried Obama to victory in 2008, setting off excited speculation that America had finally become a ""post-racial"" nation - even if nobody was quite sure what that meant. Former Attorney General Eric Holder gives Gates an inside view on the challenges of the Obama Presidency. While the symbolic importance of a black family in the White House was enormous, once Obama took office, he had to confront two foreign wars and a massive financial crisis -along with partisan attempts to block his political agenda that took on a distinctly racial tone. Moreover, as Gates carefully shows, America's old problems did not disappear with the election of a black president. At a Boston public school, teacher Marcus Walker shows Gates the new face of racial and economic segregation. Ronald Day, who became a criminal justice advocate after prison, returns to illuminate the harsh reality of mass incarceration: a staggering number of black men still behind bars, and daunting challenges awaiting them on the outside. As incidents of lethal police brutality continued to occur, a new movement began taking shape, with young activists like DeRay Mckesson and Alicia Garza and high-profile entertainers and artists like Beyoncé and Kendrick Lamar rallying around a starkly simple new slogan: Black Lives Matter. The series ends where it began: on the Edmond Pettus Bridge in Selma, with Gates raising questions about the past and future of black America: Why does racial equality still elude us? What would it take to realize the goals of the civil rights movement? And what lies ahead in the years to come? Just one thing is certain: with the determination and strength wrought by years of struggle, African Americans will find a way forward.","stream","[]","['United States']","['African Americans']","['Documentary television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1009765xxx/1009765852/1009765852-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?MARC;3974001" "asp3973999-marc","","Black America since MLK. Keep your head up. Part three","","57 minutes","['Black America since MLK']","The third hour reveals profound fissures within the country - and within black America - that deepened through the 1980s and '90s, just as African Americans were becoming more visible than ever. Gates visits his old friends Oprah Winfrey and Bob Johnson, who blazed astonishing trails during this era, reaching levels of success that Dr. King would never have imagined possible. Yet he also talks with Reverend Al Sharpton, who recalls the desperate fight mounted within poor black communities against a terrifying new scourge that was tearing lives and families apart: crack cocaine. Gates learns from Ronald Day, who grew up in the South Bronx, how hard it was to resist the profits of the crack business - a livelihood that eventually sent Day to prison, and fueled the spread of ever-harsher crime laws and policing tactics all over the country. Meeting with former Attorney General Eric Holder, Gates dissects the tragedy of America's War on Drugs, mapping out the dire consequences of an unprecedented prison-building boom set against the dismantling of the country's social safety net - a deadly combination that devastated many of the poorest and most vulnerable black communities. At the same time, Gates shows how many Americans, dazzled by the prominence of black superstars from Bill Cosby to Michael Jackson, and surrounded by compelling evidence of a well-established black middle class, were becoming convinced that racial inequality had been vanquished for good. The era's racial flashpoints called this view into serious doubt, however. The controversial Rodney King and O.J. Simpson verdicts, and the confirmation hearings of Justice Clarence Thomas - which Gates revisits with eyewitnesses like LAPD officer Stephany Powell and Thomas protégé Armstrong Williams - attested to the persistence of the color line in American society, despite the increasing diversity of the black community.","stream","[]","['United States']","['African Americans']","['Documentary television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1009765xxx/1009765851/1009765851-disc001-file001-frame00225-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?MARC;3973999" "asp3973997-marc","","Black America since MLK. Move on up. Part two","","56 minutes","['Black America since MLK']","The second hour dramatizes the diverging paths for African Americans that emerged in the 1970s and early '80s, as well as the outbursts of white backlash that marked these years. We see how the civil rights era propelled a growing portion of black America into true upward mobility, allowing them to join the middle class and move to affluent suburbs - like the Oliver family, who Gates visits in Laurelton, New York. On a parallel path, black politicians began to enjoy success not seen since Reconstruction. Gates relives with Vernon Jordan the moment when his childhood friend, Maynard Jackson, Jr., was elected the first black mayor of Atlanta - part of a wave of change that gave African Americans a real voice within the system at last. In these years of mounting opportunity, feminist authors like Alice Walker and Toni Morrison shed light on the experience of African American women, and even television sitcoms like The Jeffersons and Good Times depicted the diversity of black life. But at the same time, white America's tolerance for black success was starting to wear thin. Hank Aaron's shattering of Babe Ruth's home-run record provoked a racist backlash, and affirmative action faced serious challenges in the U.S. Supreme Court. Even school integration hit roadblocks in the North: Phyllis Ellison Feaster, who started high school in 1974, shares with Gates her painful memories of the Boston busing crisis. By the late 1970s, the tide seemed to be turning. As the global economy took a turn for the worse, white resentment of black success sharpened, and Ronald Reagan evoked a new, racially-tinged bogeyman: the ""welfare queen."" But black America refused to surrender. Meeting with a diverse array of witnesses to the time - from political consultant and current Interim Chair of the Democratic National Committee Donna Brazile to rapper Nas - Gates explores how, as inner cities fell into disrepair, African Americans found new sources of hope, from the creation of a newly-minted culture - hip-hop - to the presidential campaigns of Jesse Jackson.","stream","[]","['United States']","['African Americans']","['Documentary television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1009765xxx/1009765850/1009765850-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-fit-1024x578.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?MARC;3973997" "asp3973995-marc","","Black America since MLK. Out of the shadows. Part one","","55 minutes","['Black America since MLK']","The series begins at a crucial turning point in American history: the Selma marches that led to the signing of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, and the urban rebellion that broke out in Watts just a few days later. Watts marked a new phase in the black struggle, revealing that our nation's racial issues were not confined to the Jim Crow South - and that true equality would not come through laws alone. African Americans wanted access to better jobs, housing and education, and an end to police brutality, and they felt emboldened to try new strategies for achieving those goals. Gates travels from Watts to rural Alabama, where he learns how Stokely Carmichael helped African Americans form their own political party - the Lowndes County Freedom Organization, which ran an all-black ticket and sought political power in the face of white terror. In Chicago, activist Prexy Nesbitt tells Gates how Martin Luther King, Jr., inspired by the changing times, waged war on housing segregation and economic injustice in the urban north, meeting fierce resistance. In Oakland, Kathleen Cleaver reveals how radical groups like the Black Panthers, impatient with the nonviolent tactics of the past, confronted white authority with a new spirit of defiance. Reverend Jesse Jackson recounts the shocking assassination of Dr. King in 1968, which unleashed a massive wave of rage and mourning, raising fears that civil rights had suffered a lethal blow. The wheels of progress were already in motion, however. African Americans like Gates and his Yale classmate Sheila Jackson Lee discovered a widening field of opportunities thanks to affirmative action and the crumbling of racial barriers. Popular music, films, and television shows increased the visibility of African Americans, and conveyed a new message: Black is beautiful. At the same time, the rising call for Black Power inspired artists like Sonia Sanchez and athletes like Muhammad Ali and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to redefine American culture, politics, and society - and to see themselves in a new way.","stream","[]","['United States']","['African Americans']","['Documentary television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1009765xxx/1009765849/1009765849-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?MARC;3973995" "asp3973991-marc","","American experience.

After examining the paintings, students draw original portraits, expressing information about their subjects through expression, clothing, background, technique, and other visual cues. They conclude the lesson by sharing their responses to each other’s work. “Visual art gives students a time to wind down and express themselves,” says Mancini. “They have the freedom of making choices; they learn from making the decisions that they make. They learn to look at their work in a different way.” At Ridgeway Elementary School in White Plains, New York, MaryFrances Perkins introduces mask-making to a second-grade art class. By making their own masks, students examine the concept of symmetry, study the vocabulary word for the day, and learn that masks are found in cultures throughout the world. Children gain skills and confidence with the art form as they identify common characteristics of masks, such as exaggerated features and decoration, and relate the shapes of eyes and noses to geometrical shapes they have learned.","stream","[]","[]","['Arts', 'Interdisciplinary approach in education', 'Creative thinking in children', 'Teachers', 'Art', 'Inquiry (Theory of knowledge)', 'Mask making']","['Instructional films']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1009754xxx/1009754913/1009754913-disc001-file001-frame00040-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?MARC;3965491" "asp3965489-marc","","The arts in every classroom.

What Are the Arts? (5 minutes) We all know the arts when we experience them — but coming up with a general definition is a real challenge. Teachers, administrators, students, and parents offer candid, thoughtful, and sometimes humorous comments on what the arts mean to them. The program is useful as a discussion starter with adults and students. How Do You Know They’re Learning? (4 minutes) Learning takes many forms, and some areas of proficiency are highly subjective. In this short program, educators from several schools tell how they know if their students are “getting” what the teachers are teaching.

Even very simple questions about dark energy, like ""has there always been the same amount?"" are very difficult to answer. Observers are inventing programs to provide fresh clues to the nature of dark energy. Theorists hope to come up with a good new idea about gravity that will help us understand what we are seeing in the expansion that causes the acceleration of the universe.

Rather, around 90 percent of the mass in a typical galaxy is ""dark matter,"" a substance that has so far evaded direct detection. How can scientists make this astonishing claim? Because, although we have yet to detect dark matter, we can infer its existence from the gravitational pull it exerts on the luminous material we can see. Another facet of the dark matter problem comes at larger scales, where the total amount of mass in the universe exceeds the inventory of atoms we think were made in the Big Bang. A third indication of something missing comes from the evolution of the large-scale structure in the Universe, where fluctuations in the dark matter density are needed to seed the formation of the tendrils and filaments of galaxies we see in observations. So what is dark matter, and how might we find out? Determining the nature and distribution of dark matter is one of the most pressing (and most interesting!) open questions in modern science—it resides at the interface of particle physics, astrophysics, and gravity. Many candidates for dark matter have been suggested, from the ghostly axion (particles with a tiny amount of mass) to Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) that weigh in at 100 times the proton's mass.

Macroscopic quantum systems in which liquids, or electric currents, flow without friction or resistance have been known since the early part of the previous century: these are the superfluids and superconductors of traditional condensed matter physics that are discussed in Unit 8. In this unit we focus on an entirely new state of matter only recently created in the laboratory: this is the gaseous macroscopic quantum mechanical system known as a Bose-Einstein Condensate, or BEC. These quantum gases show the full panoply of quantum wave behavior as the individual particles of Unit 5, but now on a size scale visible to the naked eye because many millions, to many billions, of atoms occupy exactly the same quantum state, and thus form a coherent quantum whole. The quantum nature of a BEC can be directly visualized as the quantum effects are not hidden within liquids or solids as is the case with the more traditional superfluids and superconductors. Rather, they may be actually photographed, as the gas itself is a naked macroscopic quantum system. This unit starts by introducing the basic principles necessary to understand BECs, then details how the cooling and trapping introduced in Unit 5 led to the creation and subsequent manipulation of these quantum gases. Finally, we will see how atomic gases of ultra-cold fermions have evolved, in direct analogy to the Cooper paring needed to form bosonic pairs of electrons in superconductors, to molecular BECs, formed from pairs of the fermionic atoms.","stream","[]","[]","['Quantum theory', 'Cosmology', 'Physics']","['Educational films', 'Instructional films', 'Nonfiction films']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1009754xxx/1009754743/1009754743-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?MARC;3965181" "asp3965179-marc","","Physics for the 21st century.

Introduced in the mid-1970s, the string concept has stimulated a great deal of theoretical excitement even though it has no connection to experiment so far. The unit introduces string theory in the context of quantum gravity and outlines its inherent multidimensional nature; the most promising approach involves a total of ten dimensions.

General relativity is founded on the principle of equivalence of gravity and acceleration; an inescapable consequence is that gravity governs the very geometry of space and time. This property of gravity distinguishes it from the other forces and makes attempts to unify all of the forces into a ""theory of everything"" exceedingly difficult. How well do we really understand gravity? Do the same laws of gravity apply to objects on the opposite sides of the universe as to particles in the microscopic quantum world? Current research is attempting to improve the precision to which the laws of gravity have been tested and to expand the realm over which tests of gravity have been made.

Detailed studies of those forces suggest that the last three—and possibly all four—were themselves identical when the universe was young, but have since gone their own way. But while physicists target a grand unification theory that combines all four forces, they also seek evidence of the existence of new forces of nature.","stream","[]","[]","['Cosmology', 'Physics']","['Educational films', 'Instructional films', 'Nonfiction films']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1009754xxx/1009754739/1009754739-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?MARC;3965173" "asp3965171-marc","","Physics for the 21st century.

Composing music. 8","","28 minutes","['The power of music']","According to a survey by the National Association for Music Education (NAfME), music educators find the national standard about creating music to be the most challenging. The New York Philharmonic Very Young Composers program is based on the premise that creating music is an activity that should not be limited to a highly trained, elite group of adults. Founded by composer and bassist Jon Deak, the program assumes that all children - whether or not they can play an instrument - have the capacity to express musical ideas. The program is nurturing young composers in multiple states across the U.S. and several countries around the world, including Venezuela. At P.S. 11 in Brooklyn, Jon and composer/teaching artist Angélica Negrón help fourth and fifth graders record their musical ideas using graphic notation. Students consult a list Angélica posts in the classroom to more fully develop those ideas, doing things like repeating a phrase, playing it backwards, and adding harmony. Two months later, Angélica has translated the scores into standard notation, and the students refine their ideas through collaboration with an ensemble of professional musicians. The payoff is an exciting concert for peers and family members.

Juneau Alaska Music Matters (JAMM) provides the entire diverse population of students at Glacier Valley Elementary School with rich musical experiences. In this video, Lorrie Heagy draws on a variety of pedagogical strategies to teach third graders - who have just begun to play recorder - about rhythm and notation. To engage everyone, including struggling learners, she uses five key elements that she tries to incorporate into every lesson: movement, emotion, relevance, novelty, and pattern or familiarity. Her story about the rhythm family includes all of those, and makes abstract musical symbols concrete and easy to remember. The class then applies what they learn by working as an ensemble on a group composition for recorder, using cups of different sizes to represent different note values, and Post-its of different colors to represent different pitches.

Using these ideas as a foundation, in Los Angeles an entire K-2 multicultural curriculum has been built around a single piece of orchestral repertoire - Sibelius's Finlandia, a symphonic tone poem. Through the Los Angeles Philharmonic's educational initiatives, teaching artists Emily Kubitskey and Nikki Shorts use the curriculum to celebrate different cultures around the globe, as well as in Los Angeles. The culmination is a powerful Neighborhood Project Day Concert, which brings together more than two thousand elementary-school singers and student musicians from Youth Orchestra Los Angeles (YOLA), who all have been studying Finlandia. This event takes community building to a new level of inclusivity. Students learn that through music, they can create a memorable experience they all share.

With support from parents, volunteers, and the students themselves, the program nurtures young musicians and builds their confidence as performers. They give back to their community by performing with their teachers at a local senior citizen center. Peer mentoring - initially a strategy for addressing a shortage of teaching staff - has become an essential and empowering aspect of the program.

As is the case in many Venezuelan núcleos (local El Sistema programs), in Lorrie's program children learn to play the violin when they are young - in kindergarten - using paper violins first. Collaboration with kindergarten teachers has been critical to the program's success. In all her lessons Lorrie tries to engage youngsters using strategies outlined in Eric Jensen's book Teaching with the Brain in Mind - movement, emotion, relevance, novelty, and pattern or familiarity. Another effective technique she models is motivating youngsters with levels of mastery, a concept they know from video games. Her teaching illustrates the power of ensemble learning and the belief that every child is a musician from the moment he or she chooses to be.

Two sticks start side by side on the surface of a brook, only to follow divergent paths downstream. Both are examples of the phenomenon of chaos, characterized by a widely sensitive dependence of the future on slight changes in a system's initial conditions. This unit explores the mathematics of chaos, which involves the discovery of structure in what initially appears to be randomness, and which imposes limits on predictability. Mathematics Illuminated is a 13-part multimedia learning resource for adult learners and high school teachers in math and other disciplines. The series explores major themes in the field of mathematics, from mankind's earliest study of prime numbers to the cutting edge mathematics used to reveal the shape of the universe. Rather than a series of problems to be solved, mathematics is presented as play we engage in to answer deep questions that are relevant in our world today. Mathematics also provides us with a powerful language for uncovering and describing phenomena in the world around us.
