It's Academic showcases the brightest students from 81 area high schools - private, parochial, and public inner city and suburban. Using an exciting quiz format, these students compete to answer questions from all areas of the school curriculum: history, literature, geography, science and math. NBC4's Mac McGarry hosts the program. There are questions on music, arts and current events. Through It's Academic, the admiration and respect normally reserved for athletic heroes is extended to high school scholars and this helps create a pro-learning atmosphere in the schools, where academic excellence is encouraged. School systems in the Washington metropolitan area, recognizing that academic competition is a great motivating force, have established It's Academic clubs to extend the benefit of the competition to a far greater number of students than those who actually participate on the television program. It's Academic is targeted to those young people in middle and high school.

When a shark lives among humans, getting along in the world is one tough challenge after another. Kenny the shark is about a tiger shark that has made the transition from sea to land, but it's very hard trying to adapt new conditions. He lives with Kat, a middle school student, and her family. In the process of watching Kenny deal with this situation we learn real world facts about shark behavior, habits, and biology. We also learn a lot about how to understand multiple perspectives on a problem. In each episode, Kenny and Kat have to solve a problem that requires one of them to be generous, cooperative, hardworking, honest, unselfish or responsible. The situations they face are comedic and action-packed extensions of the incongruous circumstances of Kenny's life.

Tut-en-stein is an animated show featuring the resurrected mummy of an Egyptian boy-king. After the discovery of his tomb, the entire burial chamber with artifacts is brought to a metropolitan museum for a permanent exhibit and scientific research. Tut comes alive shortly after his arrival and connects with Cleo, a teen-age museum intern and her cat Luxor. Each episode teaches the audience about Egyptian history, mythology and belief systems. Because Tut's resurrection is a secret, Cleo has to draw on her knowledge of Egyptology to understand the mummy and his frame of reference. More importantly, she and Tut use the characters, gods, demons and articles from the tomb to solve the many problems they encounter when Tut forgets the rules of engagement and ventures out into the world on his own.

Boys and girls get to show how well they know each other, how effectively they can manage a budget and how skillfully they can execute a design plan in Trading Spaces: Boys vs. Girls. Each week a boy or girl will be given two days and $5000 dollars to complete a renovation of their partner's "room." The space might be a bedroom, a recreation room, or a club house, but the "designer" has to show his or her knowledge of the other person's preferences, hobbies, and lifestyle to come up with a good design. Then, the challenge of balancing the budget and figuring out the renovation process begins. Participants will learn measurement, spatial reasoning, and principles of aesthetic design as they go through the experience. In the end, they will find out if their knowledge and perception of their partner was on or off base.

This series shows the target audience, with typical kids ages 12-16, succeeding at several different physical, intellectual and strategic challenges in order to win a fabulous travel prize. The audience will be exposed to historical information about great feats of endurance, from Houdini's escape artistry to Sir Edmund Hillary's ascent of Mount Everest. Each of the 12 competitive challenges is a metaphor for one of these feats of endurance. In addition, there are strategic challenges based on ten character traits that are important for success. Contestants must estimate probabilities and beat the odds. Overall, the competition balances luck or fate against personal effort so that the contestants learn to balance intellect with intuition in developing their winning strategy. Narration and interviews during each episode trace the emotional growth and insights of the contestants, with an emphasis on how the experience of protracted competition and teamwork teaches both social skills and life skills for achieving success with your goals.

This series focuses on a group of five young teens who are students at a very unusual boarding school. Strange phenomena happen at the school, and our kids are members of a science club that decides, with the help of their professor, to figure it all out. The initiator of many of their investigative processes is the newest students to the school, Josie Trent. In exploring the larger mystery of why the phenomena occur, our kids also deal with issues relating to their socio-emotional development. The educational goal of the program is to embed scientific content in a narrative story with strong socio-emotional memssages. In each episode, one of the main characters models a learning process that relates to their social competence. Each episode also explores science content that relates to resolving an immediate problem or some aspect of the larger mystery. Specific objectives are to expose the audience to content about the physical sciences, such as black holes, worm holes, vortexes, gravity, electricity, satellite transmissions and radio frequencies. Through the characters' experiments, the audience is exposed to the scientific method, hypothesis testing and analysis of data. Other objectives are to model the development of group cohesion, teamwork, and social competence within the group and between the group and other significant people in their lives.
