Justitia im Einsatz
Von der Approbationsordnung für Apotheker bis hin zum Zerlegungsgesetz – in Deutschland wird fast alles durch Gesetze und Verordnungen geregelt. Kein Wunder, dass es in der Bundesrepublik über 1.900 Gesetze und mehr als 3.400 Verordnungen gibt. Diese unterteilen sich in 76.382 Artikel und Paragrafen. Wer kann da noch den Überblick behalten? Und sind alle Regelungen wirklich sinnvoll? Das finden Joey Grit Winkler und Fero Andersen für "Schau dich schlau!" heraus und entdecken dabei so manche Kuriosität. Nicht nur die juristische Fachsprache ist für Laien verwirrend, die Inhalte der Gesetze werfen oft Fragen nach ihrem Sinn auf. In der Verfassung von Hessen existiert sogar noch die Todesstrafe. Doch da diese im Grundgesetz abgeschafft wurde, ist das Gesetz glücklicherweise ungültig. "Schau dich schlau!" wirft auch einen Blick auf die populärsten Rechtsirrtümer. Diese passieren nicht nur im großen Stil, sondern begegnen uns tagtäglich beim Einkaufen, Zuhause oder im Büro. Besonders beliebt ist in Kaufhäusern der Hinweise "Reduzierte Ware ist vom Umtausch ausgeschlossen". Stopp, sagen die Gesetzgeber. Wenn die Ware mangelhaft, darf der Kunde das reklamieren, auch bei Sonderangeboten.

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.
The Daily Newspaper
Every day, there is a surge of news reaching us via different news channels. In spite of TV and Internet, the daily paper still is one of the most important main sources of news. But how is a newspaper created? The film shows the production of a paper in the course of one day. Starting with the editorial meeting in the morning, in which the topics and deadlines are determined, the film accompanies a journalist during her research work. You can see how a journalistic interview is conducted and what the photographer must consider when taking a press photo. Back in the editorial office, the editor’s work is illustrated, which includes the page layout and the writing of an online article in today’s time. Impressive pictures from the printing centre depict the process from the digital page to the finished newspaper. Together with the comprehensive accompanying material, the DVD is perfectly suited for use at school
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.
