The Forest as a Biotope
The Red Fox
The forest with its flora and fauna as a part of the natural environment our children grow up in is an important topic in general education at primary schools. Above all, the pupils find forest animals fascinating and interesting. However, it is generally difficult to actually meet the larger forest dwellers since they are usually shy and nocturnal. This DVD aims at making the children familiar with one of these forest animals – the red fox. The film informs on its look and appearance, introduces its habitat to the pupils, points out relations with other animals, explains the reproduction of the fox and covers its food as well as its enemies and com- mon diseases. The DVD is excellently suited either as an introduction to the topic of “forest animals” or as a tool offered to the children (for individual tasks or project work).

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.
Stalking
n Germany, 12 % of all federal citizens are pursued by a stalker once in their lives. And not only celebrities are among their victims! Everyone may be confronted with such a situation.
Internet Addiction
The film consists of two parts. The first part is the 15-minute short film “In the Net”. It describes the problem of excessive Internet use in a humorous way, in particular the risk of losing touch with reality when chatting. The second part illustrates with three real persons how Internet addiction can develop and the problems encountered by those who are afflicted. The authentic statements are commented by an experienced therapist. For many pupils, the issues addressed here are related to their everyday lives. What is a “sensible” use of the Internet, where does pathological addiction start? In contrast to addiction to alcohol, nicotine or drugs, the public seems to be largely ignorant of the problem of this addiction, which is not related to any substance abuse. The film provides material for discussion in the classroom (crossdisciplinary) and can be used as a basis for the formulation of prevention strategies.
