Evaluation of Eight "Infinity Factory" Programs. Part II: Show-by-Show Analysis.
Harvey, Francis A.; And Others
"Infinity Factory" is a television series which presents mathematics in a common-sense way to help children to understand the usefulness of mathematics in their own lives. The programs are for children ages 8 through 11, especially black and Latino children. Along with mathematics, the programs present a positive approach to the cultural and ethnic identity of minority group children. Major segments of eight programs and the series as a whole were evaluated. This report contains descriptions of each program and gives data on student attention, student appeal, teachers' opinions of the programs, and the number of kinds of related classroom activities. For each show the report presents: an abstract of its evaluation, a description of the show, a summary of evaluation procedures, and a discussion of the results of the evaluation. (JY)
