Energydrinks
ihre Gesundheitsrisiken
Der Film startet mit einer überraschenden Erkenntnis: Schon ca. 17 Prozent aller Grundschüler trinken regelmäßig Energydrinks – obwohl diese nicht in Kinderhände gehören. Denn: Wer zu viel und zu oft die Muntermacher trinkt, riskiert gerade als Jugendlicher massive Gesundheitsschäden – und immer mehr Jugendliche in Deutschland sind schon betroffen.
Simon und Saskia sind nach Aussagen ihrer Ärzte krank durch den übermäßigen Konsum von Energydrinks.
Die gesundheitlichen Risiken hängen mit dem sehr hohen Koffeingehalt, Taurin und einem hohen Zuckergehalt zusammen. Die Kombination mit Alkohol verstärkt die Wirkungen und die negativen Gesundheitsfolgen drastisch. Extremes Herzrasen ist nur eine der gefährlichen Folgen.
Ein weiteres Problem stellt die sehr einfache Verfügbarkeit von Energydrinks dar. Sowohl im Supermarkt, in Tankstellen, auf Partys und sogar auf Sportveranstaltungen sind die Drinks zugänglich.
Ein Experiment zeigt, dass selbst kleine Kinder ganz leicht im Supermarkt Energydrinks kaufen können – trotz Verboten.
Gemeinsam mit dem umfangreichen Unterrichtsmaterial ist der Film sehr gut zum Einsatz im Schulunterricht geeignet.
Lehrplanzentral und an den Bildungsstandards orientiert

Peer Mediation
Lena and Max attend the 7th form. Max is new in class. During a break, Max notices that Lena and her friend are laughing at him again. Max loses his temper! He slaps Lena in the face. That hurts and Lena runs back into the classroom with a red cheek. The growing conflict between the two has escalated. Just like Lena and Max, every day pupils all over Germany have rows with each other. At the Heinrich Hertz Gymnasium in Thuringia, pupils have been trained as mediators for years. At set hours, they are in a room made available by the school specifically for mediation purposes. The film describes the growing conflict between Max and Lena and shows a mediation using their example. In doing so, the terms “conflict” and “peer mediation” are explained in a non-technical way. The aims of peer mediation and its progress in five steps as well as the mediators’ tasks are illustrated. The art of asking questions and “mirroring”, which the mediators must know, is described and explained. Together with the comprehensive accompanying material, the DVD is a suitable medium to introduce peer mediation at your school, too.
Air Traffic
Being able to fly has been a dream of humanity from time immemorial. But it does not even date back a century that people actually started being able to travel through the air. Since the 1960s, the number of flight passengers has been constantly increasing. Thus, the airspace is no longer dominated by birds but by man-made flying objects.
Copyright
Copyright is subject to constant change to keep up with technological advances. This film enables the viewer to grasp the basic principles of this extremely intricate matter. By way of introduction, the film defines what an author is, what kinds of works there are and how long a work is protected on principle. Then the fundamental rights of an author are cited and it is shown how these are exploited in our times. In the third chapter, the respective rights are illustrated by way of practice-oriented examples of books, photos, music and films. Here, of course, an emphasis is laid on the field of education, taking into account the latest case law within the EU and Austria in particular. A further chapter highlights the problems arising with the Internet and goes into the citation law and pirate copies. All in all, in this way the viewer is made familiar with the most important basic terms and their meanings. Comprehensive worksheets and additional accompanying material invite us to deepen our knowledge of the subject.
