Everything Is Streaming: Music, Movies, and More

From the Set STEM Is Everywhere!

We stream media like TV shows, movies, podcasts, and videos through our smartphones, computers, TVs, and tablets. We do it to entertain ourselves, to stay in touch with family and friends, and to get up-to-date news. Streaming is so much a part of daily life that we might only think about the technology that makes it happen when it doesn't work. In this book, readers will learn what's actually happening when they stream something--the science of streaming! Colorful photographs, accessible text, relatable examples, and graphic organizers help readers understand the basics of this amazing technology.

SLJ Review of STEM Is Everywhere!

“Any grown-up who has felt the urge to start an “In my day…” rant about the ease of access today’s students have will appreciate the educational content of these well-written, informative books. Not only do they lay out the history of how the technology came about, they also do a reasonably good job of explaining how the technology actually works. Wi-Fi includes a helpful diagram showing the electromagnetic spectrum of waves. While all the books spend some time describing safety concerns with technology, Self-Driving Cars and Robots All Around Us share the human concern that automation will take away people’s jobs. The Cloud reminds readers how cloud-based technology helped society transition quickly to home-based work and learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Each book ends with a timeline of the tech’s development. With its blended descriptive science and tech development information, this series will make report writers very happy indeed. VERDICT Highly recommended.”
