Habitats in Human Hands
Changing Nature
Forests, hedges, heathlands or colourful meadows are the epitome of unspoilt nature for us. However, these landscapes are human-made. Either deliberately or by chance, we change our environment according to our needs. In doing so, we almost always destroy nature and create, even if unintentionally, whole new habitats. The film shows how humankind creates cultivated landscapes and how even abandoned industrial areas are for example reclaimed from nature. Various synanthropic species are described together with the habitats provided by villages and cities. And what seems incredible at first glance: gravel pits, which look like moonscapes devoid of life, are full of life, too!

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.

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.
