The Magic School Bus is a series of children's books about science. They feature the antics of Ms. Frizzle, an elementary school teacher, and her class of eight children (in the original books, the class population was at a larger and more standard amount), who board a magical school bus which takes them on field trips into the solar system, under the Bed, into the American Flag, or to other such impossible locations. The books are written in the first person from the point of view of an unnamed student in "the Friz's" class. The class pet, Liz, an anthropomorphic lizard, accompanied the class on their field trips.
Since the Magic School Bus books present scientific facts in the form of stories in which fantastic things happen (for example, a bus turns into a spaceship, or children shrink to the size of blood cells), each book has a page at the end detailing in a humorous manner which parts of the book represented scientific fact and which were fanciful storytelling. In the books' television adaptation, this was replaced by the Producer Says segment at the end of each episode, in which the producer of the show (voiced by Malcolm-Jamal Warner of The Cosby Show fame) receives phone calls from kids complaining about how some things that happened on the show couldn't happen in real life. This allows the show to explain the specific facts in question and why they had to be disregarded to a degree because of the need for dramatic license.

The Trigonometry And Pre-Calculus Tutor is a 5 hour DVD course geared to fully prepare a student to enter university level Calculus. Most students that have trouble with Calculus discover quickly that the root cause of their difficulty is actually that they have never mastered essential material in Trigonometry. For instance, a Calculus textbook will assume that the student is comfortable converting between degrees and radians and can use the unit circle to mentally calculate the Sin of an angle without a calculator. These topics and many other essential concepts are presented in this DVD course with exceptional clarity so that the student will feel well prepared to move into Calculus and Physics.
