hen we think of young children and preschool classrooms, we

often picture a room with toys, finger paints, crayons, PBS Kids

programs and books. As in so many other areas, that picture

changes as the presence of technology continues to grow.

For some people, connecting the image of iPads, laptops and

software applications with educating very young children might seem to be a stretch.

Preschool children and their teachers, however, have a very different view.

As one preschool classroom teacher noted, tablet devices such as iPads are not any dif-

ferent from a pencil or a pen – they are learning tools. When students are using a device

in the classroom, they are also absorbing a basic

comfort level with the technology they will use for

their future. The use of tablets in preschool class-

rooms is particularly appealing because they do not

require children to have the keyboarding or mouse

utilizations skills necessary for other forms of com-

puter technologies.

Top names in PBS children’s programming such

as Sesame Workshop and Fred Rogers Center along

with the National Association for the Education of

Young Children have been studying the impact of

instructional technology in classrooms. Findings

indicate that technology used appropriately can

“enhance children’s cognitive and social abilities,”

and “strengthen home/school connections.”

Today’s children need opportunities to develop the skills associated with early digital

learning adaptations in the same way that earlier generations needed book handling skills

to assist with early literacy development. Locally, these digital resources can be found on

Vegas PBS.org with games, videos, hands-on activities and much more.

Allowing learning to take place “anytime, anywhere,” resources can be accessed through

a ROKU player, xBox and via tablet, smart phone and many other digital platforms. Dozens

of age-appropriate educational apps for popular PBS programs like Martha Speaks,

Dinosaur Train and Super Why! are available. These resources have been proven to increase

student performance on standardized tests, vocabulary, and social and emotional skills at

the same time the student is having fun and feeling a sense of accomplishment. Even fin-

ger paints would have a hard time improving on that!

It has been a life-long dream of Estefan’s to record an entirealbum of standards – songs that have a veryspecial meaning in her life – and now thatdream is a reality.

Estefan’s signature and distinctively sul-try contralto voice perfectly embraces someof the most recognizable and beloved tunesfrom past musical eras in this unforget-table, intimate performance, as she singssongs from her new album live in concertfor the first time.

On her new album, simply titled GloriaEstefan: The Standards, she recordedsongs that were written by some of the mostwell-known songwriters of all time, includ-ing Kern, Chaplin and Gershwin. Estefanpersonally selected some of her all-timefavorite songs, from the Billie Holiday clas-sic “Good Morning Heartache” and heradaptation of Charlie Chaplin’s “Smile,” toher wedding song, “El Dia Que Me Quieras,”translated into English for the first time as“The Day You Say You Love Me.” Otherselections include “They Can’t Take ThatAway From Me,” “I’ve Grown Accustomed toHis Face” and “What a Wonderful World.”

egas PBS brings relief tothese hot August nights withsome cool new programs. Thesummer mysteries continue

with an intriguing spin on a familiar taleand a high-power courtroom mini-series.

Returning home on a train from vaca-tion, beautiful young socialite Iris Carr isbefriended by an Englishwoman she knowsonly as “Miss Froy.” When Iris falls asleepshe awakens to find Miss Froy missing andher fellow passengers denying she everexisted. Is Iris going mad or did theencounter really take place?

Adapted from Ethel Lina White’s 1936novel The Wheel Spins – filmed by AlfredHitchcock as The Lady Vanishes – thestory is set against the tense backdrop of theBalkans of the 1930s and weaves togetherthe stories of a colorful trainload of char-acters brought to life by a stellar cast.

The year is 1931. Iris (TuppenceMiddleton, “Inspector Lewis”) is the dar-ling of her social circle. While on holidaywith friends in the Balkans, Iris decides toescape her friends’ raucous partying andtravel home to London alone. Her expecta-tions of peace are short-lived when shefaints on the platform of the railway sta-tion in the scorching heat. She wakes intime to be rushed on to the train but witha pounding head and the feeling of beingon the verge of a dream.

Finally seated, Iris is comforted by MissFroy (Selina Cadell, “Doc Martin”), whosetweed suit and bookish looks belie a jovialand adventurous spirit. Comfort soon turnsto horror when Miss Froy mysteriously dis-appears. With only the support of the infat-uated young engineer Max Hare (TomHughes, “Silk”), Iris maintains the convic-tion that Miss Froy has somehow beenabducted. But who would want to snatch aseemingly harmless Englishwoman?

As fellow passengers refute Iris' storyand threatening figures emerge to dis-prove Miss Froy's existence, Iris' unswerv-ing certitude takes on the appearance ofmadness, and she finds herself strugglingfor her sanity – and for her life.

Other members of the cast includeKeeley Hawes (“Upstairs Downstairs”) asthe cynical mistress of the ambitious SirPeveril (Julian Rhind-Tutt, “Any HumanHeart”), Danish actress Benedikte Hansenas the sinister Baroness, and GemmaJones (Bridget Jones’ Diary).

The smallest of all warm-blooded creatures, hummingbirds live onlyin the Americas. Many found in NorthAmerica are seasonal migrants who canlive up to 12 years. With nearly 350 differ-ent species, these little Americans owetheir genetic diversity to their unusualdiet of nectar, extreme metabolism andincredible survival instincts. They areingenious adapters and expert aerial pred-ators, and their ability to hover is uniquein the avian world.

After Newtown: Guns in America Tuesday, August 13 at 8 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 and 10.1

his special is an unprecedented exploration of America’s enduring relationship with

firearms. From the first European settlements in the New World, guns have been at

the center of our national narrative. Efforts to curtail their distribution and owner-

ship have triggered epic political battles. This program traces the evolution of guns

in America, their frequent link to violence and the clash of cultures that reflect competing

visions of our national identity. Following at 9 p.m., Fixing Juvie Justice explains that

young people are entering the juvenile justice system in surprising numbers, and they seem to

emerge worse than when they entered. A group of innovators applies the restorative justice prin-

ciples of the Maori people of New Zealand to the mean streets of Baltimore. Can the wisdom

of the Maori help slow the explosion of kids in jail?

American Masters: James Baldwin: The Price of the Ticket Friday, August 23 at 9:30 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 and 10.1

ames Baldwin (1924-1987) was at once a major twentieth century American author, a

Civil Rights activist and, for two crucial decades, a prophetic voice calling Americans,

black and white, to confront their shared racial tragedy. Now captured on film is the pas-

sionate intellect and courageous writing of a man who was born black, impoverished,

gay and gifted. The special uses striking archival footage to evoke the atmosphere of Baldwin's

formative years — the Harlem of the 30s, his father's fundamentalist church and the émigré demi-

monde of postwar Paris. Newsreel clips from the 60s record Baldwin's running commentary on the

drama of the Civil Rights movement. The film also explores his quiet retreats in Paris, the South

of France, Istanbul and Switzerland — places where Baldwin was able to write away from the racial

tensions of America. Repeats Tuesday, August 27 at 10 p.m. Part Two airs Sunday, August 25 at 7

p.m. and Part III follows at 8 p.m.

William Kentridge:Anything Is PossibleSaturday, August 31 at 9 p.m.on Vegas PBS Jackpot!This special is an intimate look into themind and creative process of WilliamKentridge, the South African artist whoseacclaimed charcoal drawings, animations,video installations, shadow plays, mechan-ical puppets, tapestries, sculptures, liveperformance pieces and operas have madehim one of the most dynamic and excitingcontemporary artists working today. Withits rich historical references and under-tones of political and social commentary,Kentridge's work earned him inclusion inTime magazine's 2009 list of the 100 mostinfluential people in the world. This docu-mentary features exclusive interviews withKentridge as he works in his studio anddiscusses his artistic philosophy and tech-niques. He also talks about how his per-sonal history as a white South African ofJewish heritage has informed recurringthemes in his work – including violentoppression, class struggle, and social andpolitical hierarchies.

The March Tuesday, August 27 at 9 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 and 10.1

his is the story of the day that Martin Luther King Jr. made his world famous “I Have

a Dream” speech and how the march nearly did not happen. And why? Because

close allies of King’s and opposing forces did not want him to make “that” humbling

and heart stopping unifying speech. The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom

(aka The March) in August 1963 was to become one of most important moments in contempo-

rary history. It was the moment when one of the world’s greatest leaders spoke, carrying the

hopes and dreams of millions of disenfranchised American people; those who had faced two

centuries of injustice were about to stand up for their Human Rights. This documentary recounts

the events when 250,000 people from across a continent came together to form the largest

demonstration the young American democracy had ever seen and freed themselves from the

shackles of history.

Side by Side: The Science, Art and Impact of Digital Cinema Friday, August 30 at 9:30 p.m. on Vegas PBS Channel 10 and 10.1Join Keanu Reeves on a tour of the past and the future of filmmaking in a provocative and in-depth examination of how digital filmmaking is challenging traditional celluloid film as thegold standard in moviemaking. Since the invention of cinema, the standard format for record-ing moving images has been film. Over the past two decades, a new form of digital filmmakinghas emerged, creating a groundbreaking evolution in the medium. Reeves explores the devel-opment of cinema and the impact of digital filmmaking via in-depth interviews with Hollywoodmasters, such as James Cameron, David Fincher, David Lynch, Martin Scorsese, StevenSoderbergh and many more. The program examines what is gained and what is lost both prac-tically and philosophically in the changeover from film to digital. Those who embrace digitalcite how it democratizes the filmmaking process and allows for infinite creativity.
