Which of the following about The Mad Science Kids Club is INCORRECT?
W: Good morning, this is SCIENCE WORLD, I’m Faith Lapidus, welcome to this morning’s program. Many boys and girls like science. Some of them go to the Internet to find answers to scientific questions. Today, we will tell about a few science websites for children. One company hopes to use this interest in social networking to increase their interest in science. Earlier this year, the Mad Science Group launched what it called the first-ever science-based social network for children. It is known as the Mad Science Kids Club. Elke Steinwender is Marketing and Promotions Manager for the Mad Science Group. Can you give more information about your website?
M: OK. The website is designed for children between the ages of six and fourteen. It is a place where kids can build their own social community online and they can really engage in some fun and cool scientific discovery and really allow them to turn their home into a lab if they choose to do so. The Mad Science Kids Club lets children explore science with other boys and girls around the world. Like Facebook, the children are able to invite people they know to become their friends. Or, they can join existing groups to meet new friends.
W: Joining groups? That’s really fun.
M: Yes, there are several groups. One, called the Counting Club, is for children who love working with numbers. They share different information about mathematics. This includes advice about solving math problems and jokes involving numbers. Another group, called Cosmic Adventures, is for children who are interested in space.
W: Are there any additional computer applications?
M: Yes, boys and girls can buy different kinds of computer applications from the Kids Club store. One application is called Lab Rat. It lets children ask and answer questions about science. Their questions are then published on the website, along with the correct answer from Mad Science experts.
W: You know, many parents want to do science experiments with their children at their home. What should they do?
M: Well, there is also the Science Zone in our website. This offers science experiments that children and their parents can do at home. They can see the actual experiment being done by one of our mad scientists. And then they can download the PDF file to replicate them at home. Members of the Mad Science Kids Club can share pictures on the website and send and receive e-mail through the network. They can also play games.
W: We’ve heard that The Mad Science Group joined with a company called Everloop to create the science-based social network. Everloop is known for its experience creating social media websites for children with a high level of online safety. Do you provide any safety measures to protect our children in the website?
M: There are many levels of safety built into the Kids Club to make sure that children have a safe and fun experience online. When a child receives the new friend invitation or a group invitation the parent has the option to say yes or no. They can change their privacy setting and give more or less freedom to their child. There is also Crisp Moderation and that’s an online moderation that basically makes sure that the post streams remain content friendly. And there are also some more sophisticated, anti-bullying, for example, protocols. So it’s a mix between software and actual people monitoring the Kids Club. Parents are required to approve their child’s membership in the Mad Science Kids Club. There are also applications that help parents control and follow what their children are doing.
W: Amazing. I think many children who love science can’t wait to log on this website to join all kinds of groups and to experience the charm of science right now.
M: Um,the Mad Science Kids Club is still being tested. A full launch is planned for early next year. The website will launch first in the United States and Canada. It will be opened up in other countries over a period of time.
W: Thank you for your time! There are several other science-based websites that seek to increase children’s interest in science. One is called sciencenewsforkids.org. It helps to explain science-related news stories in a way that children can understand them. The stories can deal with any number of areas in science, from animals and environmental issues to space and weather. Extremescience.com is another website for young scientists. A specialty of the Extreme Science website is providing information about amazing or unusual scientific facts. This includes information on things like the largest diamond ever discovered, the Earth’s driest desert or highest waterfall. It also includes facts about the oldest animal known to scientists, the largest land animal and the fastest animal in the sea.
