Sinus
Flächensätze IV
Der persische Mathematiker und Astronom Abu l-Wafa entdeckte und beschrieb im 10. Jahrhundert in der Trigonometrie den Zusammenhang zwischen einer Seite und dem ihr gegenüberliegenden Winkel.
Die Sinusfunktion, eine elementare Funktion der Mathematik, beschreibt das Verhältnis der Gegenkathete zur Hypotenuse in Abhängigkeit vom Winkel.
Die DVD leitet in einem ersten Teil die Sinusfunktion her und führt die Beweise.
In einem zweiten Teil wird das Wissen in zahlreichen unterhaltam und übersichtlich animierten Aufgaben angewandt und vertieft.
In Verbindung mit dem umfangreichen Zusatzmaterial (klassische und interaktive Arbeitsblätter, Glossar, Testfragen) ist die vorliegende DVD hervorragend für den Einsatz im Unterricht geeignet.

Pupils Practise Inclusion
When people come together, no matter under what concomitant circumstances – ultimately, it is about how these people meet and how openly they interact with one another.
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.
Podcasting
Today, the use of new media has become a matter of course not only in everyday life – schools and teaching, too, benefit from the new technologies and methods, which support active and independent learning. Especially in computer science, ethics and language courses but also in all other subjects, modern media are a valuable pedagogic and didactic asset. This DVD uses the example of podcasts to demonstrate how the possibilities opened up by new media can be applied in the classroom and how the pupils can be taught to handle them in a competent and target-oriented manner. The film is aimed at supporting the use of podcasts at school and encourages making them. This also requires the ability to find information on the Internet and assess it. The film informs on the functionality of podcasts and technical background as well as on the teaching and learning possibilities offered by podcasts – ranging from specific contents to superordinate learning targets such as the advancement of creativity and team spirit. The DVD is a useful support for teachers applying new media and wishing to show their pupils how to handle Running Time: 20:29 ms them in a sensible way.
