Eine Reise von Frankfurt nach Australien dauert heute 24 Stunden. In dieser Zeit sind die Menschen der Antike ungefähr 50 km weit gekommen. Der Film zeigt die Entwicklung der Verkehrsmittel und des Reisens. Er beleuchtet das recht junge Phänomen der Erholungsreisen und zeigt, wie der Fortschritt in den Verkehrsmitteln die Reisegewohnheiten der Menschen verändert hat. Ein zweiter Teil zeigt, wie sich die Übertragung von Nachrichten verändert hat und welche Auswirkungen der enorme Zuwachs der Übertragungsgeschwindigkeit auf das Leben der Menschen hat. In Verbindung mit dem umfangreichen Zusatzmaterial (Arbeitsblätter, interaktive Aufgaben, Testfragen) lässt sich das vorliegende Medium hervorragend im Unterricht verwenden.

At set hours, they are in a room made available by the school specifically for mediation purposes.
