Issue 1 - THE MICROSCOPE - OUR WINDOW ON THE WORLD
Who would have imagined that an instrument invented four hundred years ago, based on the simple principle of light passing through a lens, could revolutionize our lives? Since the 1500's, when the first scientist caught a glimpse of the miniature world of nature, the microscope has been aiding scientific discovery in a variety of ways. In this issue we discover how scientists are using the microscope to open a window on our world. - 13 Minutes

Issue 2 - SCIENCE IN THE THIRD WORLD
In remote areas of the world, lack of information holds people back from improving their lives. After seeing this program, students will appreciate how technological alliances and linkages to education as well as resources help people in remote areas to gain knowledge. They will also understand how science and technology are helping people to develop twenty-first century skills to advance themselves and their countries. - 14 Minutes

Issue 3 - SOLVING TODAYS PROBLEMS
The full spectrum of job opportunities in engineering is surveyed in this special career guidance program. Everything from automotive, chemical, electrical, electronic, manufacturing, and genetic engineering is examined in this report. What engineers do, how they do it, and the tools used to solve problems are explained in this program. - 12 Minutes

Issue 4 - WORKING FOR YOU
Students learn how engineers develop and choose between thousands of raw materials and hundreds of manufacturing processes to put together everything from compact discs to jeans. With the focus on modern manufacturing materials, tools and processes, they'll also discover how they themselves can begin to prepare for creative careers in chemical or manufacturing engineering. - 13 Minutes

Issue 5 - DUMMY & ROBOT HEROES
Crash test dummies have been our stand-ins in hundreds of accidents staged by automotive engineers to analyze what happens to people in collisions and design ways of keeping us safe in automobiles. But test dummies, and their mobile counterparts, robots, spare us life and limb in many other capacities. See the growing sophistication of human substitutes, and their use in fields like new product and safety testing, disaster and rescue training, manufacturing, as well as hazardous materials handling. - 11 Minutes
