[NMScience] FW: NOVA Offers NOVA scienceNOW for Download

[Ellen Loehman]

Hello Educators,

Just in time for the school year, NOVA is making its popular
magazine-style show, NOVA scienceNOW, available for download.

The fast-paced 8- to 15-minute segments are ideal for classroom use.
Each one-hour episode includes science topics in several disciplines
and an inspirational researcher profile. Companion Web sites for
each segment extend the topics presented in each show.

Launched in 2005, NOVA scienceNOW is hosted by astrophysicist Neil
deGrasse Tyson and a team of correspondents who find creative new
ways to engage viewers in the latest discoveries and breakthroughs
from an array of scientific fields--from health and biomedicine to
astronomy and Earth science.

More than 20 segments are currently available for download at
