Dictatorships in the 20th Century IV
Adolf Hitler
Within just a few years, Adolf Hitler succeeds in transforming the young democracy of the Weimar Republic into a dictatorship. With sophisticated propaganda he got millions of German citizens to vote for him. He achieved dictatorship and started the 1st World War – driven by his anti-Semitic ideas and the vision of making Germany the ruler of the world. This film provides information on Hitler as a person. How this Austrian boy with an utterly ordinary childhood, whose dream it was to be a painter one day, grew into the man that turned half the world into piles of rubble. DVD 1 The first part deals with Hitler’s family, his childhood and adolescence, his occupation during the 1st World War, his life in Munich and how he acquired his National Socialist mindset. He becomes Chancellor of the Reich and after Hindenburg’s death he combines the two offices in his person and becomes the Fuehrer. Supported by photos and video recordings of various speeches he held and quotations from his book “My Battle“, the film gives the pupils a good insight into Adolf Hitler’s character.

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.

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.
