KET TAKES ADULT EDU Todays’ KET: Helping Adult Learners Move Forward The link between education and prosperity is clear. We are living in a global economy that demands greater educational achievement and a more highly skilled workforce than ever before. Although in the United States our high school graduation rate is at the highest level in 40 years, one in five high school students still don’t graduate. Currently, there are 39 million Americans, including more than 750,000 Kentuckians, without a high school diploma. The personal impact of dropping out of high school is significant. Dropouts are twice as likely to be unemployed as those with a diploma. They earn 72 cents for every dollar earned by a graduate, $330,000 less per person over their career. Dropouts are more likely to abuse drugs and alcohol, become teenage parents, live in poverty, be incarcerated, and commit suicide. For nearly four decades, KET has produced programs and materials to help adult learners in Kentucky, and the nation, pass the GED® test, improve their lives, and pursue their dreams. As a new edition of the GED® test is introduced in January 2014, KET is one of only a few nationally approved providers launching new high school equivalency preparation materials. KET has developed Fast Forward – a flexible, multiplatform learning system. Kentucky’s future prosperity depends on higher educational achievement, and KET continues to be part of the solution with efficient, effective tools on every platform for learners of all ages. Sincerely,

Shae Hopkins KET Executive Director and CEO

UCATION IN A WHOLE NEW DIRECTION

n 1975, KET created its first series for GED® study, and ever since then, Kentuckians — and adult learners around the country — have turned to KET for video instruction to get ready for the GED high-school equivalency test. Fast forward to 2014, and the landscape is drastically changed, yet the need is still critical. As an all-new, online-based GED test launches this month, a new test-preparation system from KET, Fast Forward, also launches to address the needs of today’s adult learner. “The biggest change about the GED test is that it’s computer-based, and that drove our decision to put most of our resources into computer-based instruction,” said Tonya Crum, KET’s director of adult education and workforce training. “That includes text, videos, interactive tools, and other ways for students to practice the material in a hands-on way. We’re trying to incorporate all the different learning styles. “We’ve made this product as much like the new test as possible so that students won’t be surprised or have difficulty,” adds Crum. “We’ve included a highlighter tool so students can highlight right on the screen, and an onscreen calculator just like they’ll use in the test.” The online Fast Forward system is highly customizable. Students will be able to work at their own pace, guided by a learning plan designed just for them based

on content area pre-tests. Fast Forward offers courses in four subject areas: math, language arts, science, and social studies. It follows the organization of the GED tests, but Fast Forward can be used by students throughout the nation to prepare for any of the official high school equivalency exams because it is aligned to national Common Core and College and Career Ready standards. Although Kentucky continues to offer the GED test, other states have chosen alternative tests. Fast Forward will provide the necessary preparation to help students succeed on any of these tests. In addition to the online instruction, Fast Forward will also offer e-books designed for those students needing less intensive instruction but who wish to brush up for the test. The first of these, in language arts, will be introduced soon, with the remainder to follow later this year. This new test-prep system is available at KETFastForward.org. Kentucky residents can call 800-KET-4GED for special pricing and support. As part of the new college and career program, KET is also producing a series of four CPB-funded half-hour documentaries profiling adult students from around the country seeking to better themselves through attaining their high-school credential. Those students, some of whose photos appear here on these pages, are featured in the inspirational programs airing this fall on KET.

KET helps learners of all ages. Call (800) 866-0366 to support our misson.

COVER STORY

LifeAfter Matthew Fourth season brings the 1920s and dramas big and small to Downton Abbey

Januar y 2014

Masterpiece Classic “Downton Abbey” Season 4

KET Begins Sunday, Jan. 5 • 9/8 pm KET2 Begins Thursday, Jan. 9 • 9/8 pm

Elton John

he most-watched drama in public television history enters its fourth gripping season with the whole world waiting to learn how the beloved characters deal with a shocking tragedy. Airing over eight Sundays, the Masterpiece series opens with a two-hour premiere on Jan. 5. The acclaimed ensemble is back together with returning guest star Academy Award-winner Shirley MacLaine as the free-wheeling American in-law, and Paul Giamatti, who stars as Cora’s playboy brother, Harold. All who tuned in last season know that Matthew Crawley — heir to Downton Abbey, husband to Lady Mary, and brand-new father to a baby boy and successor — lies dead on a country road next to his overturned roadster. The family is still grieving the death in childbirth of Sybil, Mary’s youngest sister, who also left a baby behind. Season four opens six months later. Although it is the

1920s, Britain still observes mourning rituals that are almost Victorian in their solemnity. Nonetheless, the Crawleys are beginning to snap out of it: Robert, Lord Grantham, must manage the estate without his canny son-in-law, and Cora suddenly faces a staffing crisis. Violet, the Dowager Countess played by Maggie Smith, who has seen enough tragedy, knows how to recoup quickly while Isobel, Matthew’s mother, may never recover. As for the girls, Edith — who was jilted at the altar — tempts scandal with a new beau, and Mary now finds herself the most desirable widow in Yorkshire. The servants also pick up, buck up, and get on with it — with new arrivals, departures, rivalries, and betrayals among the downstairs staff. Life goes on at Downton Abbey. And when this season ends, you’ll need only to keep a stiff upper lip as you wait for season five! Filming is set to begin this summer in England. KET.org

what’s new

In this British situation comedy, Tim is a single father trying to win back the respect and affections of his son, Marcus. In the hope of proving that he is not a complete loser, Tim quits his dead-end job and is accidentally recruited as a trainee spy for MI5. Episodes this month find Tim in therapy over a squirt gun and tackling some mission objectives, which include joining Marcus’s book club.

Midsomer Murders KET2 Begins Saturday, Jan. 4 • 11/10 pm The rural countryside of a fictional county in England provides the backdrop for this British detective drama series. Based on the novels of Caroline Graham, the current lead character is DCI John Barnaby, a cousin of the original detective Tom Barnaby, who fights crime in the beautiful but deadly villages of Midsomer. In the first episode, the murder of an old lady in the seemingly idyllic village of Badger’s Drift reveals a web of sinister events.

Father Brown KET Begins Thursday, Jan. 2 • 10/9 pm KET2 Begins Saturday, Jan. 4 • 8/7 pm Based on the short stories by G. K. Chesterton, this series follows a kindly Roman Catholic priest as he solves crimes in his quintessentially English community in the 1950s. Many years spent hearing his parishioners’ confessions have given Father Brown an uncanny insight into the origins of evil and the workings of the criminal mind. But the stories are not concerned with judgment; he’s more interested in saving souls than in bringing the guilty to justice.

The Times They Are A-Changin’ This month, KET’s daytime schedule changes as our adult GED-preparation classes move off the air to the new online program, Fast Forward (see story pp. 2-3). We are creating a new schedule for all of our how-to programs that incorporates blocks of genre programs, including: • Monday afternoons an expanded cooking block featuring Mind of a Chef and A Taste of History

• Tuesday afternoons, more garden and woodworking programs such as Built to Last, Woodturning Workshop

• Wednesday afternoons will see more crafting and programs geared toward families with children like Travel with Kids and Hey Kids, Let’s Cook

• Thursday afternoons mark the return of Donna Dewberry and new music programs

• On Friday morning we’ll air more painting and quilting programs, while Friday afternoon’s cooking block expands to three hours.

See the daytime program grids on pp. 16-17 for titles, times, and channels.

SHORT TAKES KET receives $1.14 million in grants for early childhood education KET’s Everyday Learning Collaborative, a partnership between KET, the National Center for Families Learning, and Metro United Way, has been awarded $1.14 million in grants from the James Graham Brown Foundation and the PNC Foundation. The James Graham Brown Foundation’s $818,775 is the secondlargest private gift in KET’s history. As part of its Grow Up Great initiative, the PNC Foundation invested an additional $325,000, following a $150,000 grant in 2010 that helped launch the Everyday Science for Preschoolers prototype. These grants strengthen KET’s commitment to serving Kentucky’s youngest learners, especially those that live in high poverty and low access areas. This initiative expands upon the hundreds of hours of educational preschool content on television and online, like Sesame Street, that KET provides to Kentucky homes and childcare centers. With these grants, KET will create an expansive collection of Everyday Learning videos, interactives and classroom activities. These will be distributed free online — via KET’s website and nationally through the PBS Learning Media platform — for use by early childhood educators and families. Curriculum toolkits for educators, conveniently organized in binders, will offer lesson plans and training materials.
