SoundPrint Media Center is producing a testing a pilot of a radio project that would examine mathematical models used to simulate phenomena, make predictions and generate scenarios. During the "What If: Models, Predications and Scenarios" pilot phase, SoundPrint will produce and test two half-hour documentaries, follow-up radio updates, and a plan for a web-based model simulation and educational resources. Educational Support Services will conduct evaluation of the pilot materials to determine: the programs' ability to translate complicated mathematical and scientific ideas through a storytelling approach, the types of models that best lend themselves to illustrate those concepts, and the degree to which the documentaries as stand alone stories have an impact on listeners. The formative evaluation also will test a website.

SoundPrint媒体中心正在测试一个无线电项目的试点项目，该项目将检验用于模拟现象、做出预测和生成场景的数学模型。在“假设：模型、预测和场景”试点阶段，SoundPrint将制作和测试两部半小时的纪录片、后续的广播更新，以及一个基于网络的模型模拟和教育资源计划。教育支持服务部将对试点材料进行评估，以确定：这些节目通过讲故事的方式转化复杂的数学和科学思想的能力，最适合说明这些概念的模型类型，以及纪录片作为独立故事对听众产生影响的程度。形成性评估也将测试一个网站。
