Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | This series is designed to encourage young viewers to accept and value diversity. Each week the team of young Stargate trainees enter a new world. As they encounter cultures, races, and life forms foreign to any they have ever dreamed of, they also face life-threatening problems that require each member of the team to contribute to the well-being of all. As the young cadets learn to interact with and value "people" from different backgrounds and cultures, so too will the viewing audience. The trainees model many of the attitudes and behaviors that today's young people must learn in order to function well in a highly diverse society. The episodes emphasize getting along with others who are very different from oneself, working well with one's own team, and the individual character traits and abilities that go into the making of a good Stargate warrior and, of course, a good person.

Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | The objective of the program is to promote creativity and individuality and prosocial behavior through teaching young viewers how to recycle old objects into new by means of do-it-yourself handicrafts in the context of highly positive interpersonal interactions. Four youngsters team up to produce a weekly, local access how-to-do-it TV program. Each week, they develop and produce a "educational program" expressly designed to teach young viewers how to execute a new creative, handicraft project. The characters day-to-day lives influence what each week's craft will be. Their on-camera demonstrations provide viewers with step-by-step information about how to execute the various craft projects. Their interpersonal interactions model highly positive social behaviors. Cake is a dynamic young adolescent who has never seen a glue-gun she didn't buy individuality, but you can make it."

Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | For young people today, new information is generally no more than a mouse-click away. How do kids get the "right" information and make proper use of it. What questions should be asked? How does one assess veracity? How does one weigh alternatives? How are decisions best arrived at? How does one decide when aims can be accomplished independently, and if help is needed, how does one go about enlisting support? Above all, how can goals be achieved ethically and with regard to the greater good. "Magi Nation" addresses these vital learning goals. Tony and Edyn along with their human and decidedly non-human colleagues model their successful, and sometimes less than successful, attempts to analyze difficult situations, set appropriate goals, and creatively seek solutions to the dire dilemmas in which they find themselves.

Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | This series is designed to encourage young viewers to accept and value diversity. Each week the team of young Stargate trainees enter a new world. As they encounter cultures, races, and life forms foreign to any they have ever dreamed of, they also face life-threatening problems that require each member of the team to contribute to the well-being of all. As the young cadets learn to interact with and value "people" from different backgrounds and cultures, so too will the viewing audience. The trainees model many of the attitudes and behaviors that today's young people must learn in order to function well in a highly diverse society. The episodes emphasize getting along with others who are very different from oneself, working well with one's own team, and the individual character traits and abilities that go into the making of a good Stargate warrior and, of course, a good person.

Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | For young people today, new information is generally no more than a mouse-click away. How do kids get the "right" information and make proper use of it. What questions should be asked? How does one assess veracity? How does one weigh alternatives? How are decisions best arrived at? How does one decide when aims can be accomplished independently, and if help is needed, how does one go about enlisting support? Above all, how can goals be achieved ethically and with regard to the greater good. "Magi Nation" addresses these vital learning goals. Tony and Edyn along with their human and decidedly non-human colleagues model their successful, and sometimes less than successful, attempts to analyze difficult situations, set appropriate goals, and creatively seek solutions to the dire dilemmas in which they find themselves.
