A math teachers job just became easier and tons more fun! Why? The release of Bill Nye the Science Guy: Probability and Time, from Disney Educational Productions – two engaging new math programs featuring the famously fun scientist-comic-author-and-former-Boeing-engineer, Bill Nye. As always, Bill Nye's off-the-wall appeal helps teachers reveal to students the perfect formula for understanding complex concepts - just like those covered in the full-length curriculum oriented programs, Probability and Time. Teachers and students alike will appreciate how fun and relevant Bill's explanations and demonstrations are in Probablility. In fact, there's a good chance this will be one of Bill's best episodes! In it, he makes the complicated concept of probability very simple to understand, while also showing how it allows us to predict events! In Time, students will laugh as they learn, too, because Bill shows how humans measure time with the help of "Beverly Hills 90210" heart-throb Ian Ziering, and comedian Ellen Cleghorne! And, when he's not showing us how to make a water clock, he's explaining Einstein's Theory of Relativity. Each 26-minute video program is close-captioned and comes with a 4-page, Special "Math" Edition Teacher's Guide. The program and Teacher's Guide sell for $49.95. Like all Disney Educational Productions' programs', Bill Nye the Science Guy: Probability and Time is licensed for all school related activities. Available March,1999.
