Coding with Bee-Bot, Scratch and Robotics
There are a lot of things in the world whose functioning and appearance were determined even before they are perceived or before they occur. It is already determined in a nut or seed what the tree or the flower will look like. Genetic information of living beings is determined by a defined sequence, a code. This code forms a kind of alphabet of life, and life follows this established code. Robots, too, follow an established code. The way a robot moves has been determined beforehand by a series of commands. The robot only performs what was written down before via rules and signs in a specially coded language. The code guides the robot. So coding or programming means, simplified, that in a first step a language is agreed upon with signs and rules with which then, in a second step, codes can be determined that are understood and executed.

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.
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.
