Otto von Bismarck
Leben und Wirken
Otto von Bismarck war der prägende Staatsmann im Europa der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Seine Persönlichkeit, sein innen- und außenpolitisches Handeln und die Bewertung durch die Nachwelt sind indes sehr widersprüchlich. Er führte eine Sozialgesetzgebung ein, die bis heute in ihrem Kern in Deutschland gilt und bekämpfte doch auf das Heftigste die Sozialdemokratie. Er betonte, dass Deutschland „saturiert“ sei und friedlich mit seinen Nachbarn zusammenleben wolle und hat doch die Einigung mit „Eisen und Blut“ unter Bedingungen, die den Nachbarn Frankreich auf das Tiefste demütigten, herbeigeführt. Wurden ab den 1870 Jahren landauf, landab Bismarckdenkmäler errichtet, so wurde er von Kaiser Wilhelm II. kurz nach dessen Thronbesteigung entlassen und seine Politik revidiert. Der Film nähert sich diesen Widersprüchen und stellt sie teils mit Spielszenen dar. In Verbindung mit dem umfangreichen Zusatzmaterial (klassische und interaktive Arbeitsblätter, Testfragen, Glossar) lässt sich das Medium hervorragend im Unterricht verwenden.

Blogging
The weblog or blog, for short, as a medium is not much older than this century. Blogs came into being in the World Wide Web as ’messages from below’, as web pages from web creators who wanted to share their view of the world with the world. They are short notes, long texts, pictures, videos, which are posted loosely and at random intervals to the world for an undefined public.
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.
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.
