question:
Horrible Audio, No Teaching . These other reviewers are kidding you.    There are significant problems with this dvd.  1. The audio on this dvd is horrible.  It sounds like they are talking and singing through a tube.  I could have done better in my garage.  2. The tracks are: all the singing and stories in english, or the same program in Mandarin.  There is no teaching whatsoever.    I realize there are not many dvd's for teaching children Mandarin, however there are a few better than this
answer:
NEG


question:
Great Movie But MUCH Is Fiction..... . I am a math teacher myself so I have always had a special interest in this film.  I think it is very well done and it is very inspirational.      However, for anyone who wants to know the TRUE story of what happened with Escalante and his students, purchase the book "Escalante: The Best Teacher in America" by Jay Mathews.  The film leads you to believe that Escalante took students who didn't know how to multiply and then in the course of one school year made those same students score 5s on the AP Calculus test.  This is far from what really happened.  Escalante spent YEARS developing a program and he made sure he had proper courses that led to an understanding of Calculus.    There is one other noticeable bit of fiction in the film.  The movie portrays it as the testing company (ETS) accused the students of cheating simply because the company was racist and they felt the students at Garfield High School couldn't have possibly known the material.  The true story is that some answers on the AP tests from Garfield were noticeably similar.  About 12 students made the same exact errors on one particular problem, and that is what made ETS suspicious.    So once again, a well done film, and while is it "based on a true story", it is far from a true story
answer:
POS


question:
Stargate SG-1 Season 9 DVDs . As a long fan of Stargate SG-1, why wait so long for Season 9 to be released only for short segments to have been removed from the episodes?  Are the customers being sold future syndicated versions of these episodes?  I must say, I'm not pleased.    MGM, Sony, Fox and Amazon, what's up
answer:

NEG
