| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | Americans are famously terrible about geography. The last Roper Geographic Literacy Poll (2006) showed only half of young Americans could identity New York State on a map. Less than that could find Ohio. Perhaps part of the problem was that there was no television program that entertained while educating about the nation's states. There is now. State to State from Bellum Entertainment blends maps, history, and facts with eye-catching visuals and clever narratives that move quickly through some of the very interesting geography in our diverse country. The Keys, St. Louis, Colorado, and Caves episode covers details of the Florida Keys, St. Louis, MO, the Colorado River and Mammoth Cave in a single half hour program. It brings in facts and information when they are interesting --for example, the 'Kentucky cave wars' during the birth of Mammoth tourism. The contrast between different parts of America is fascinating. The target audience of 13-16 year-olds might not be good at geography polls, but no one is immune to the lure of the Florida Keys shown by State to State. And when the camera zooms in from the planet view, through the US view, to the blue-green ocean surrounding the Keys, viewers get information that the Roper pollsters would appreciate |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | Americans are famously terrible about geography. The last Roper Geographic Literacy Poll (2006) showed only half of young Americans could identity New York State on a map. Less than that could find Ohio. Perhaps part of the problem was that there was no television program that entertained while educating about the nation's states. There is now. State to State from Bellum Entertainment blends maps, history, and facts with eye-catching visuals and clever narratives that move quickly through some of the very interesting geography in our diverse country. The Keys, St. Louis, Colorado, and Caves episode covers details of the Florida Keys, St. Louis, MO, the Colorado River and Mammoth Cave in a single half hour program. It brings in facts and information when they are interesting --for example, the 'Kentucky cave wars' during the birth of Mammoth tourism. The contrast between different parts of America is fascinating. The target audience of 13-16 year-olds might not be good at geography polls, but no one is immune to the lure of the Florida Keys shown by State to State. And when the camera zooms in from the planet view, through the US view, to the blue-green ocean surrounding the Keys, viewers get information that the Roper pollsters would appreciate |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | "The Coolest Places on Earth" is an exploration of cities (both modern and ancient), natural wonders, and cultural history, heavy with engaging content, fast-paced editing, and the accessible, conversational narration we have come to expect from Bellum Entertainment. The series' tone, information, and rich factual content reaches and serves the target 13-16-year-olds with a style that informs, supports, and encourages the kind of engaged thinking that have emerged from the Common Core State Standards. These standards, now adopted by 45 states and the District of Columbia recognize the importance of engaging, relevant information about the world young people live in. This series' episode also touches key points in the National Geography standards. Each program features a minimum of three different locations, each separate geographically and historically. In the reviewed episode, which covered more than six locations, including contemporary New Zealand, historical Savannah, Georgia, and Sassi di Matera, Italy. The range of context in the episode's highlights is focused and diverse, allowing fascinating history and culture-pirates, ghosts, caves, and ice hotels in the reviewed episode--and striking contemporary visuals that put the information in context. For 13-16-year-olds, this matches neatly with the National Geography Standards (Geography for Life). The standards want to equip young people with knowledge, perspectives and information to engage in "Earth's diverse cultures and natural environments." This program does that nicely while supplying stories to hold the mind of the viewer. The "coolest places on earth" are defined by history and culture, not just by the striking visuals that accompany every segment. Beyond |
