"Kinetic City After School" is a two-year project that will produce a web-based after-school program for children ages 9-11. The on-line adventure will enable users to enter a virtual universe where a computer virus (Deep Delete) systematically attacks a new area of science each month (analogous to one of the 12 Project 2061 Benchmarks for Science Literacy). As students battle the virus, they learn Benchmarks learning goals. Each unit invites children to think about the problem, take action and reflect on their experience. The activities accommodate different learning styles and are supplemented by live audio chats with scientists and a self-assessment enables students to earn Kinetic City Power Points. Power Points can be donated to after school programs without computers and Internet access. These sites may in turn, exchange their accumulated Power Points to obtain computers, Internet service and a site license for "Kinetic City After School." Although the program is web-based, most of the activity extensions are done off-line. "Kinetic City After School" will be introduced to after-school sites with a two-day training workshop, with follow-up via phone meetings and site visits. Supporting materials will include a Leader Guide, Journal and Kinetic City Home Crew activity pages for use in the home.

“动感城市课后”是一个为期两年的项目，将为9-11岁的儿童制作一个基于网络的课后项目。在线冒险将使用户进入一个虚拟世界，在那里计算机病毒（深度删除）每个月系统地攻击一个新的科学领域（类似于12个2061计划科学素养基准之一）。当学生们与病毒作斗争时，他们学习了基准学习目标。每个单元都邀请孩子们思考问题，采取行动并反思他们的经历。这些活动适应不同的学习风格，辅以与科学家的实时音频聊天和自我评估，使学生能够获得Kinetic City Power Points。ppt可以捐赠给没有电脑和互联网接入的课后项目。这些网站可以反过来，交换他们积累的电源点，以获得电脑，互联网服务和一个网站许可证为“动能城市课后”。虽然该程序是基于网络的，但大多数活动扩展都是离线完成的。“动感城市课后”将通过为期两天的培训研讨会介绍给课后场所，并通过电话会议和实地考察进行跟进。支持材料将包括领导指南，期刊和动能城市家庭船员活动页面在家里使用。
