(*) Answers: True, False, False.

That's right, Cape Cod Radio Mystery Theater isn't just used to entertain; it's being used to educate as well.

Tom Brown, a science teacher and longtime fan of the show, began using episodes of the show to show his students some basic concepts: Earth Science, Research Skills,  Physics, Probability, Mathematics and the Scientific Method. He had such great success with CCRMT as an educational tool that he offered us his lesson plans, which we are proud to offer to you.

The plans are in Adobe PDF format, and we encourage all educators (and students) to put them to good use. If you do use them, we only ask that you drop us a line and let us know how they were.

Note: Some of these programs may not be suitable for all ages and grades. The plans come with age recommendations, but we advise you to listen to the episode in question before using the lesson plans.
