Mammals I
Vertebrates 5
When we talk about animals in everyday conversation, we mostly talk about mammals. Mammals live in water, on land and in the air. Countless species of the most diverse sizes and appearances populate our earth. A clear classification is not always possible because of their adaptation to their different habitats. DVD 1: Mammals 1 The first DVD begins with describing the characteristics of mammals, their reproduction and development as well as the regulation of their body temperature. The film illustrates features they have in common, but also looks into the huge differences within the class of mammals. DVD 2: Mammals 2 The second DVD first focuses on the different ways of searching for food and digesting it. Then differences in the brain and sense organs are outlined. The last part looks into the homology of mammals whose basic body structure is unvarying despite their adaptation to the most diverse habitats.

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.
Podcasting

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.
