It was designed to be a Continuing Educational Curriculum for Middle and High School Teachers. If you get a chance you should go back to the site and take a look at all of the interactives and printed material we produced.<br /><br />Sadly it is only streaming (and Windows Media at that). But we did clear it for distribution to Libraries and schools so you might be able to find a copy there.<br /><br />Again I am SO glad you found the show and seemed to enjoy it!<br /><br />Thanks again!<br />StewartLe Stewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284714400570891080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264226589944705290.post-16906719844773342032009-01-19T14:56:00.000-08:002009-01-19T14:56:00.000-08:00They yell at you all over the place about "streami...They yell at you all over the place about "streaming only!", but I found streaming to be somewhat inconvenient. If you have VLC, you can losslessly download/save any episode with this command,<BR/><BR/>vlc mms://media.scctv.net/annenberg/wm9/math_illuminated_01.wmv -I dummy --sout math_illuminated_01.wmv<BR/><BR/>Just change both 01 parts to the number (01, 02, ..., 13). Each is about 65MB. You don't even need to register to do this.<BR/><BR/>Something with wget would have been nice, but you need vlc to talk mms:// with the server.Chris Wellonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18075264129097520330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-264226589944705290.post-34397542854044027052009-01-18T03:11:00.000-08:002009-01-18T03:11:00.000-08:00(And no, I don't know what channel it was on.
