IPY: Pole to Pole

该项目将制作一个多部分的广播项目，包括8个半小时的纪录片、40-50个简短的广播节目、一个音频信息交流中心和一个关于极地地区科学研究的网站。 方案的内容支持国际青年年的目标。 该项目将与四个国际无线电合作伙伴制作：澳大利亚广播公司的科学单位，英国广播公司世界服务，德国之声电台和新西兰电台。 这些国际合作者将研究诸如极地地区条件对全球气候变化的影响，动物如何适应快速的环境变化，极端环境中的生存以及极地地区原住民的变化过程等问题。 这些节目将通过合作伙伴在美国和国际上接触到大量观众。 信息交流中心/网站的设计将提供有组织的学习资源和项目广播节目的音频档案以及档案访谈和声音，供公众和专业受众使用。 将有两个程序和网站的形成性和总结性评价。

This project will produce a multi-part radio project including eight half-hour documentaries, 40-50 short radio features, an audio clearinghouse and a website on scientific research in the Polar Regions. The content of the programs support the goals of IPY. The project will be produced with four international radio partners: the science units of The Australian Broadcasting Co., the BBC World Service, Radio Deustche-Welle and Radio New Zealand. These international collaborators will look at issues such as the influence of conditions in Polar Regions on global climatic change, how animals adapt to rapid environmental change, survival in extreme environments and processes of change among native people in the Polar regions. The programs will reach a large audience in the United States as well as internationally through the collaborating partners. The clearinghouse/website will be designed to provide organized learning resources and an audio archive of the project's radio programs and archival interviews and sounds for use by both the general public and professional audiences. There will be both formative and summative evaluation of the programs and website.
