17. Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other non-core educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. §73.671, NOTES 2 and 3.
1st Quarter 2009 Educational Objectives In compliance with the Children?s Television regulations that became effective January 2, 1997, the QUBO Programming Block on NBC features an on-air icon indicating that each program is ?educational and informational? for children. This icon is displayed at the beginning of each broadcast. Also, in compliance with the regulations, the following document, which includes ?educational and informational? objectives of QUBO on NBC, must be placed in your public file. Each of the programs listed below, which make up the QUBO programming block, is specifically designed to serve the educational and informational needs of children ages 4-8. All of the programs have educational objectives that are central to the content and appropriate to the program genre. There are six returning shows from last quarter. All shows were developed specifically for a target audience composed of children 4-8 years of age. Four of the shows are book-based series. Five of the shows contain important social-emotional messages for the target audience; one of the returning shows communicates science and astronomy messages. All educational and informational messages are delivered through an animated narrative format. Set in medieval times, ?Jane and the Dragon? is an animated show that hails from Martin Baynton?s best-selling book about a middle-class girl named Jane. Jane is raised in the Royal Court as a Knight-in-Training after she demonstrates her courage by leaving the castle to conquer the local dragon. The giant green Dragon, whose sense of humor exceeds his ferocity, instead becomes Jane?s best friend and a part of the castle community. In each episode, Jane encounters a challenge that tests her problem-solving skills and requires her to demonstrate her strength of character as a Knight of the King?s Guard. Sometimes Jane learns a moral lesson, and other times she uses her analytical ability to illustrate how a problem can be made less complicated and easily solved. Based on the book series by Deborah Manchester, ?The Zula Patrol? teaches science and astronomy facts to a target audience of children 4-8 years of age. The Zula Patrol is a group of six animated aliens, headed by Captain Bula, who carry out a variety of scientific space missions. During their missions, Captain Bula and his crew often encounter their foe, Dark Truder, and his minion, Traxie, who are trying to take over the universe. Over the course of the story, the audience learns different facts about specific space topics such as stars, planets, orbits, moons, asteroids, comets, gravity, and space probes. The information is then highlighted during a segment where crew member Professor Multo delivers his ?Multo-Moments? or summary of scientific facts from the story. Typically, the stories also provide a social-emotional tag based on tolerance and non-violent conflict resolution. ?3-2-1 Penguins!? features two children?Jason and Michelle? whose vacation at their grandmother?s cottage ends up being more adventure than they expect when their toy spaceship with four toy Penguins comes to life. The children are sucked into the spaceship, where they meet the now live Penguins and journey through space to solve an inter-galactic disaster threatening the Penguins and their friends. Each story begins with a problem, a moral dilemma for one of the siblings that affects his/her relations with the other, and ends after the children have learned an important social-emotional message through their adventure. The show communicates messages on topics such as honesty, being patient with others, and avoiding jealousy. ?VeggieTales? is a show that draws upon characters from stories, which use both long and short form material to provide social-emotional messages to children. The children?s series features animated vegetables who teach life lessons through stories. Hosted by Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber, each episode begins by establishing the problem. Using short stories to parallel the situation with a problem and solution, the episodes end by reiterating the proposed solution and the life lesson learned through the experience. The show communicates social-emotional messages based upon the core values of honesty, kindness, forgiveness, and appreciation for all, using music, unusual characters, and allegorical storylines. ?Turbo Dogs? is an animated show based on the books, Racer Dogs, by Bob Kolar. The series follows a group of six dogs from Racerville who love to compete with one another in races. In each story, one or more of the dogs encounter and solve problems that teach them social-emotional lessons on good sportsmanship, teamwork, cooperation, playing fair, and friendship. The show also imparts information on the mechanics of racing such as directionality and concepts of distance and time. The social-emotional messages are embedded through the stories using action and humor. The tags at the end of each episode reiterate and establish the educational message learned by the dogs. ?My Friend Rabbit? is an animated show with two lead characters, Rabbit and Mouse, who work together to tackle challenges that are characteristic of the childhood experience. With each episode, Rabbit and Mouse, along with other friends, face a unique dilemma that compels them to think creatively about how to approach and solve their problem by trying out different solutions and persisting with new ideas when one fails. 2nd Quarter 2009 Educational Objectives There is one new show for the 2nd quarter of 2009. All shows were developed for a target audience composed of children 4-8 years of age. Four of the shows are book-based series. Five of the returning shows contain important social-emotional messages for the target audience. One of the returning shows communicates science and astronomy messages. All educational and informational messages are delivered through an animated narrative format.
