Summary:
Father Boniface Hardin hosts a discussion with Sister Jane on the damaging impact of testing, specifically IQ tests and educational achievement tests, on Black people. They discuss the cultural bias present in all testing, and the ways in which test results influence self-image. The hosts also speak on comparisons between Black and whites through testing and the role of linguistic difference in testing.
Precision and perfection are the watchwords of today’s Space and Atomic Age. Nothing can be overlooked everything must be checked and rechecked before the “go” signal can be given. A crack in a missile’s fuel line, invisible to the human eye, can be disastrous. A defect in an atomic reactor, while not disastrous, can mean costly and time-consuming repairs. This program examines “non-destructive testing”, a new-comer, yet one of the most important engineering techniques. Non-destructive testing is simply a method of examining an object for defects without destroying it in the process. It is unlike other testing methods such as automobile test, for example, in which the vehicle is pushed to its maximum performance before it ends up on the junk pile. The television cameras are at the Metallurgy Division of the United States Atomic Energy Commission’s Argonne National Laboratory, where scientists are using such non-destructive testing techniques as X-rays, gamma rays, and neutron radiography. At Argonne, neutronradiography is an invaluable aid to pinpoint what happens to uranium or plutonium fuel that sustains a chain reaction in an atomic reactor. The knowledge gained through this technique is important in designing the atomic power plants of today and tomorrow. Also shown are the ultrasonic testing methods used to detect imperfections by “bouncing” sound waves through objects that are being tested. One of these methods converts sound waves into electronic signals to show television pictures of hidden defects. The value of these non-destructive testing methods becomes increasingly more important as the tolerances become smaller and smaller for the new atomic reactors, space vehicles, and aircraft engines that are being constructed.
Shows excerpts from four tests: two six-year olds (I.Q.s 104 and 156) and two ten-year-olds (I.Q.s 100 and 80). Indicates techniques of rapport and standardized administration. Concepts and computation of M.A. and I.Q. presented in detail. An introduction to Stanford-Binet; not intended to teach competent administration.
Here in Indiana, we talk often about wind and solar, but what could renewable marine energy development mean for people from the Hoosier State to small remote island?
Andrea Copping, a scientist with the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory's Marine Sciences Laboratory, helps us understand the science, collaborations, and potential of several varieties of marine energy.

Demonstrates through slow motion and natural photography the positions and movements of the "Texas Star." Opens with a group of eight dancers performing the introduction to the dance. Shows each pair of dancers, identified by a number, demonstrating the different parts of the dance and how each step flows smoothly into the next. Concludes with the performance of the dance to a record.
Records and preserves the essence of an exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Captures the flavor of Indian traditions and philosophy and explores the spiritual significance of art in the everyday life of the Indian people.
In this program, Dr. Jones illustrates textural contrast, i.e., the setting of passages of homophonic texture against polyphonic passages in the same composition, with examples from Palestrina, Bach and Handel. Thematic contrast is explained as the juxtaposition of themes of contrasting characters in somewhat the manner of conflict in drama.
Miss Pearson explains texture and color in nature as in grass, rocks, sand, clouds, and water. Happy colors and sad colors can be used, she says, to create mood. She explains how to combine texture and color for interest and design.
Documents the principal works of ancient statuary which constituted the core of the exhibition, The Arts of Thailand, which came to the United States in the form of a traveling exhibition in 1960. Presents the transformation of the Buddha image from the representation of a revered teacher to that of a supreme deity. Makes the point that one cannot understand Thailand today if one fails to see how faithfully the psychology of a nation is mirrored in its depiction of the Buddha throughout the centuries.
This film explores three United Nations Technical Assistance Administration projects focused on Thailand's extensive system of waterways. UN experts have studied the country's efficient canal network and traditional river barge designs to gather data and create building plans that could benefit other developing nations. The initiative also includes support for Thailand's ongoing efforts to enhance irrigation and flood control systems.

Episode 5 of Your Choice Our Chance, a series of drug abuse prevention programs to be viewed by students and community members in an effort to educate and prevent the use of tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, and other drugs before preteens start. The program targets children in the vulnerable pre-adolescent years, incorporating proven prevention strategies recommended by leading health educators. The school component focuses on knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors that influence drug use. The programs are designed to help students develop personal and social skills, learn to make decisions, and improve their self - concept. Dramatic episodes feature target-age students in realistic school, family, and peer group situations. The programs feature a variety of socioeconomic levels, family structures, and racial and ethnic backgrounds.
