Verbreitung und Schutzmaßnahmen
Sie begleiten und bedrohen den Menschen seit Urzeiten und sie haben mehr Todesopfer gefordert als alle Kriege zusammen. Die Rede ist von Seuchen. Je nach Ausbreitungstyp spricht man von ihnen als Epidemie, als Endemie oder als Pandemie. Der in Zusammenarbeit mit der Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Nürnberg-Erlangen konzipierte Film geht einerseits auf die historische Entwicklung der verschiedenen Seuchen, vor allem der Pest und der Malaria ein und zeigt andererseits das Wirken von Seuchen der heutigen Zeit, vor allem Ebola, AIDS und COVID-19. Ein Schwerpunkt wird auf Hygienemaßnahmen gelegt, mit denen die Ausbreitung von Seuchen verhindert oder zumindest verlangsamt werden kann. In Verbindung mit dem umfangreichen Zusatzmaterial (Klassische Arbeitsblätter, interaktive Aufgaben, Glossar, Testfragen) lässt sich das Medium hervorragend im Unterricht verwenden. Die interaktiven Aufgaben, das Glossar und die Testfragen wurden mit H5P erstellt und können ohne weitere Software verwendet werden.

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.
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.
Ceramic
Ceramics are indispensable in our everyday lives. We eat from ceramic plates, drink from ceramic cups, use tiled ceramic bathrooms. But how is ceramic manufactured? The film reveals the secrets of this fascinating material! We get to know more about the beginnings of ceramic in the Old World of Egypt and Mesopotamia, about Greece, China and Rome. We gain interesting insights into the valuable earthenware and are also shown the exquisite further development of the "white gold". Today this versatile material is irreplaceable in industry, too. Whether in space or as an easily compatible substitute in medicine, ceramic is applied in many places.
