Magnetism
The invisible force
You cannot smell, see, hear or feel magnetic force itself. So it seems quite magical to us when a metal object can be moved by a magnet through a glass plate as if by an invisible hand, or when we can stick a piece of paper to the refrigerator door with a small magnet. Objects made of metal stick, float or are repelled by each other without us having a simple explanation of it. But not only do many things we use in everyday life work with the help of magnetism, the Earth itself creates a magnetic field. So we are, on the one hand, surrounded by man-made magnetic objects, on the other hand, we live in a natural magnetic field produced by the Earth itself.

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.
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.
