There is no question that a career in one of the multimedia industries is among the most popular career choices of adolescents. Although many feel their calling is for a more obvious "on-camera" career in acting, there are also a number of "behind the screen" pursuits that make for fulfilling career choices. Made in Hollywood: Teen Edition (MIH:TE) was created by Connection III Entertainment Corp. to provide career information and advice from top Hollywood professionals to 13 to 16 year old viewers so they can "explore and learn about the technical, artistic, creative, business, and administrative careers that are a part of the motion picture, television, music video, and home entertainment industries" (Berry & O'Neal, 2006, p. 1). To guide the production of MIH:TE, Berry (2006) developed a career and guidance model that offers a framework for the development of each episode. |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | On the Spot was created by the award-winning producers of the long running Educational and Informational show, Animal Atlas, now in its seventh successful season of national syndication. Last year, the National Governors Association and Council of Chief State Officers released the Common Core State Standards Initiative, an attempt to set a national curriculum to bridge the standards gap between states. The content of On the Spot, a 30-minute E/I program for teens ages 13 plus, is based on the Common Core State Standards. The show uses an entertaining on-the-street format to test how well young people know the information contained in their own national curriculum. Then, On the Spot explains the answer to each question. The pedagogical approach of testing first and explaining the answer second has been shown to enhance retention and understanding. On the Spot challenges viewers to recall middle and high school knowledge about history, science, math, English, second languages, health, geography, art, music, and technology, and then teaches them the answer. Among a field of narrowly-focused E/I programs, On the Spot stands out as most the scholastically diverse and enriching educational program on the market. One of On the Spot's creators and producers at LongNeedle, Peter McDonnell, is a curriculum and education specialist who has designed curriculums for Oregon State University and created science, math, reading, social studies, history, art, and health content for the country's leading K-12 educational publishers, Macmillan/McGraw-Hill, Pearson, and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. LongNeedle is very familiar with the FCC's requirements for E/I content and continues to create E/I programming that surpasses these guidelines. On the Spot will be delivered to stations fully Closed Captioned with the required E/I logo on screen for the entire duration of the program (not necessary during commercial time.) |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | On the Spot was created by the award-winning producers of the long running Educational and Informational show, Animal Atlas, now in its seventh successful season of national syndication. Last year, the National Governors Association and Council of Chief State Officers released the Common Core State Standards Initiative, an attempt to set a national curriculum to bridge the standards gap between states. The content of On the Spot, a 30-minute E/I program for teens ages 13 plus, is based on the Common Core State Standards. The show uses an entertaining on-the-street format to test how well young people know the information contained in their own national curriculum. Then, On the Spot explains the answer to each question. The pedagogical approach of testing first and explaining the answer second has been shown to enhance retention and understanding. On the Spot challenges viewers to recall middle and high school knowledge about history, science, math, English, second languages, health, geography, art, music, and technology, and then teaches them the answer. Among a field of narrowly-focused E/I programs, On the Spot stands out as most the scholastically diverse and enriching educational program on the market. One of On the Spot's creators and producers at LongNeedle, Peter McDonnell, is a curriculum and education specialist who has designed curriculums for Oregon State University and created science, math, reading, social studies, history, art, and health content for the country's leading K-12 educational publishers, Macmillan/McGraw-Hill, Pearson, and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. LongNeedle is very familiar with the FCC's requirements for E/I content and continues to create E/I programming that surpasses these guidelines. On the Spot will be delivered to stations fully Closed Captioned with the required E/I logo on screen for the entire duration of the program (not necessary during commercial time.) |
