Soundprint Science Series

声纹，每周半小时的全国广播公共广播纪录片系列，提出了一个16个节目声纹科学系列，包括四个主题组成部分，每个节目，探索和研究当前的问题和想法在1）生物多样性和物种管理; 2）入侵：捕食者和猎物; 3）文化地理学;和4）科学的意义。该系列为听众提供了各种各样的经验，说明了什么是定义为科学的广度。科学的思想和方法是通过一个人性化的讲故事的方法，利用富有想象力的质量的声音沉浸在探索现象的听众。每部纪录片都探索一个单一的主题，将其置于一个有意义的背景下，并将听众带到简单的事实报道之外。节目将复杂的科学思想转化为可访问的，令人难忘的故事，提高广大人群对科学的认识和理解（SOUNDPRINT每周达到250，000多名听众）。声纹科学系列将作为一系列季度，为期一个月的特别节目，与宣传，教育和社区外展材料提供给电台。节目播出后的应用包括针对中学水平的教师指南包的开发和多媒体和互动设置的教育目的的节目重新包装。节目的录音带拷贝在专业、教育和非正式环境中被听众分享。涉及的主要科学学科包括：生物学、环境科学、地理学、生命科学、数学和物理学。拟议的声纹科学系列被提交给国家科学基金会非正式科学教育计划。该系列节目面向广泛的普通观众，从小学到成年人。

SOUNDPRINT, the weekly half-hour nationally broadcast public radio documentary series, proposes a 16-program SOUNDPRINT SCIENCE SERIES comprising four thematic components of four programs each, which explore and examine current issues and ideas in the areas of 1) Biodiversity and Species Management; 2) Invasions: The Predator and the Prey; 3) Cultural Geography; and 4) The Meanings of Science. The series offers listeners a variety of experiences illustrative of the breadth of what is defined as science. Scientific thought and method are presented through a humanistic storytelling approach that capitalizes on the imaginative quality of sound to immerse listeners in the exploration of phenomena. Each documentary explores a single subject, placing it in a meaningful context, and taking listeners beyond the surface of simple fact reporting. Programs translate complex scientific ideas into accessible, memorable stories that increase awareness and understanding of science for a broad population (SOUNDPRINT REACHES OVER 250,000 LISTENERS EACH WEEK). The SOUNDPRINT SCIENCE SERIES will be broad cast as a series of quarterly, month-long specials, with promotional, education and community outreach materials provided to stations. Post- broadcast application of the programs includes development of teacher guide packets targeted to the middle school level and repacking of programs for educational purposes in multi-media and interactive settings. Cassette copies of programs are shared by listeners in professional, educational, and informal settings. Major scientific disciplines involved include: biology, environmental sciences, geography, life sciences, mathematics and physics. The Proposed SOUNDPRINT SCIENCES SERIES is submitted to the National Science Foundation Informal Science Education Program. Programs in the series are geared to a broad, general audience, elementary through adult populations.
