Milos Radakovich’s 90-Second Science Lessons
for Teachers


Since the summer of 2004, Milos Radakovich, a local science educator and naturalist, has been producing a series of 90-second science spots, called Life on the Planet, on KUSP, Central Coast Public Radio.

The programs air Monday through Wednesday at 7:49am and 5:00pm on KUSP, 88.9 FM. They are also available on our website here or podcast at npr.org.

Now you can bring this exciting science series into your classroom. Explore Bone-eating Worms, Terraforming Mars, Flying Snakes, Flat Earth, Monterey Submarine Canyon, Sea Otters, and dozens of other science segments using Milos’ newly published book called 90 Seconds, audio CD and teacher workbook. Milos’ scientific approach to problem solving and environmental protection can be used with different age levels and for a variety of subjects.

This effort was funded by a generous grant from HSBC, a world-wide financial institution with offices in our area.

In the 90-second package you will find the following:

  • A 90 Seconds book with 50 of Milos’ favorite programs
  • A companion audio CD*
  • A teacher workbook keyed to the book and CD
  • Evaluation materials (a requirement of our funding)

Filled with vocabulary lists and sample lesson plans, the materials are intended to serve as a supplemental science resource for teachers in the Monterey Bay region.

We invite you will use these materials in your classroom and find benefit and enjoyment through this project. As Milos would say, “Learning new stuff about the natural environment can be fun at any age!”                                  

To order a copy for use in your classroom, call Virginia Wright at KUSP – 831-476-2800 x220, or send an e-mail to vawright (at) kusp (dot) org and include:
