Geologic Activities
Volcanoes, Geysers, Continental Plates
The formation of our earth began according to today’s knowledge from a huge cloud of dust and gases about 4.6 billion years ago.
Very vividly and clearly structured, the film depicts plate tectonics on the outer cooled earth shell. The continental plates drift apart, collide or push past each other.
Numerous spectacular shots from Iceland show the earth’s activity in action.
In some places, the enormous heat from deep within the Earth is conducted outward as if through a valve. Volcanoes are formed where the hot viscous rock from the interior of the earth reaches the outside.
Geysers and hot springs are formed because water is heated underground by volcanic activity and then makes its way to the surface through a maze of cracks and crevices.
In combination with the extensive additional material (worksheets, interactive tasks), this medium can be used excellently in the classroom.
In the detailed data section of the DVD 91 pages of teaching and accompanying material, of which:
26 pages of worksheets and supplements with solutions
17 test tasks
10 interactive tasks
Curriculum-centred and oriented towards educational standards

Product Piracy
Counterfeiting takes place in almost all economic sectors – textiles, watches, car parts, machine parts, tools, accessories, software and medicines. Some counterfeits are easy to recognise, others are so well-executed that even experts have difficulty distinguishing between original and imitation. This DVD covers the development of a product from idea to manufacture. Once a product has become a trademark, product pirates appear on the scene.
Inclusion
Madita is eleven and blind. She does not want to go to a special school but to a regular grammar school. She says she feels "normal" there. Jonathan is eight and has a walking disability. He likes going to the school where he lives. Here, his best friend sits next to him. Max Dimpflmeier, a teacher who is severely deaf, explains that school life is not easy. Quote Max Dimpflmeier: "You don't want to attract attention, you want to avoid saying that it is necessary for you that 70 people adjust to your situation." People on their way to inclusion.
