Schoolhouse Rocks! is a series of animated musical educational short films that aired during Saturday morning children's programming on U.S. television network ABC. Topics covered include grammar, science, economics, history, mathematics, and politics. The series aired between 1972 and 1986, and infrequently during the 1990s and 2000s, with new shows created between 1993 and 1996 until its cancellation by ABC in 2001.

And here are some example episodes:
Who is He or She?
- Evelyn He Ji

- There are a lot of names that can lead to confusion, misunderstanding or even chaos when coded into another language. My name is definitely one of them. Many people guess I am a boy from my last name "He", which actually means "why, how, what..." in Chinese and reads like "Huh" instead of "Heeeee". Years of questioning and misunderstanding fosters in myself a habit of explaining the unclear and a desire to reveal the unknown. As a master student in Harvard Ed school, I am interested in exploring all kinds of approaches teachers and parents can adopt to meet different needs of students without sacrificing the entertaining features or lowering the standard. My objective of opening this blog is to provide academic findings, teaching materials and other relevant resources for those who want to try another way to teach or learn.
