Selbstbewusstsein für das neue Leben
Wie gehen Menschen damit um, wenn sie, beispielsweise durch einen schweren Unfall, große und sichtbare Narben im Gesicht und am Körper davongetragen haben? Was tun, wenn das alte Leben schlagartig vorbei ist? Wenn viele Menschen gar nichts mehr mit einem zu tun haben wollen? Die Mädchen in Lesia Cartellis Camp „Angel Faces“ haben genau das erlebt. Sie alle sind in jungen Jahren Opfer schwerster Verbrennungen geworden und müssen fortan mit zahlreichen Entstellungen in Gesicht und Körper leben. Sie haben erfahren, wie es ist, von der Gesell-schaft ausgeschlossen zu sein. Sie fühlen sich hässlich und ungeliebt, sind darum häufig verbittert, sehen keine Zukunft für sich. Der Film begleitet die Mädchen auf ihrem Weg zu neuem Selbstbewusstsein. Er geht auf die Schicksale der Mädchen ein und zeigt, mit welchen Mitteln ihnen im Laufe ihrer Therapie geholfen wird. Am Ende blicken sie wieder hoffnungsvoll in die Zukunft. Dazu können auch wir Mitmenschen beitragen, indem wir die Mädchen so akzeptieren, wie sie sind. Gemeinsam mit dem umfangreichen Unterrichtsmaterial (klassische und interaktive Arbeitsblätter, Testaufgaben, Lehrtexte etc.) ist der Film sehr gut für den Einsatz im Unterricht geeignet.

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.
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.
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.
