Bronze Age
A New Material is Discovered
With the use of bronze as a working material a new historical era started at about 2200 BC. Why was this particular metal so important for the development of humankind? Bronze consists of nine parts copper and one part tin. It is melted at 800 to 1,000 degrees. The bronze is poured into the mould and solidifies after a while. During the Bronze Age the moulds consisted mostly of sandstone. The latter was carved first and served as a template or negative of the objects, also called artefacts ─ such as flat axes, sickles, knife blades and swords. The raw materials copper and tin were mined in Europe, the Middle East and also Africa. A flourishing trade with them started.

Computer Games
This film covers the topic of computer games in a variety of ways and from many different angles. Apart from the fascina- tion of computer games for users, the historical development as well as the production of computer games are described. The established genres are introduced, the guidelines of the German BPjM are explained. In light of recent public discussions, a neutral overview of the pros and cons of playing computer games is given, and different kinds of player behaviour are outlined. In this film, the pupils will recognise many aspects of their favourite pastime that encourage an independent, constructive use of this medium and reinforce their media competency. The film and teaching material are very closely related to the real-life situation.
