"Squeakers" is an award-winning documentary movie about teaching math  
and science using Etoys in the class room (made in 2002). It's in  
English and was subtitled by the Squeak community to quite a few  
languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Greek,  
Japanese, Chinese and a few others. We gave out some DVDs at LinuxTag  
last week (you know who you are, care to comment once you've seen  
it? ;)).

The individual chapters are available online
	http://squeakland.org/resources/audioVisual/
(though not converted to OGG yet, which is on the To Do list I think)

At the very bottom of that page you can find a link to buy the  
subtitled NTSC DVD for $8. The subtitled PAL version (otherwise  
identical) can be purchased from Squeak e.V. Germany for 8€ iirc.
