Product Description See the world with the Standard Deviants! The award-winning Standard Deviants will be your tour guides as they study the diverse histories, cultures and physical characteristics of distant (and not-so-distant) regions of our world - from North America to Europe and Africa! This DVD includes: North America, Ho!!!, Russian Around Europe & Africa: Safari, So Good. .com The Standard Deviants troupe makes the daunting study of world geography fun and manageable in this 90-minute presentation. Three distinct programs explore the physical and human geography of North America, Europe and Russia, and Africa. The format is modern and fast paced, featuring young actors and comics, clear computer graphics, concise explanations, and a healthy dose of cornball humor. Hip young hosts present a basic overview of each geographical area followed by a deeper look at factors like climate, topography, historically significant events, and a glimpse at modern life. Fast facts are labeled "Geo-Neat-O's," seemingly old-time curmudgeons relate modern facts, and computer-generated classical philosophers add their own succinct wisdom. Each episode concludes with a nicely outlined, concise review of topics covered. Much like the Schoolhouse Rock! series popular in the 1970s, the Standard Deviants embrace popular culture as a significant educational tool. (Ages junior high school through college) --Tami Horiuchi
