I was visiting a friend of mine in Toronto over the weekend who is a high school physic teacher. She IS making the show required watching for her class. The school has already ordered the DVDs and it will be her job to watch each episode and create a worksheet for the students to fill in as they watch. She is going to recommend that the students watch each episode twice... the first time just watch and take it all in, try to fill in the worksheet, then watch the episode over again and listen for the answers that you missed the first time through.

She said "I'll be getting paid to watch Cosmos. I love my job."

The DVDs will be available for the students to sign out and watch at home and will be available to watch in the school library.
