Geologic Activities
Volcanoes, Geysers, Continental Plates
The formation of our earth began according to today's knowledge from a huge cloud of dust and gases about 4.6 billion years ago. Very vividly and clearly structured, the film depicts plate tectonics on the outer cooled earth shell. The continental plates drift apart, collide or push past each other. Numerous spectacular shots from Iceland show the earth's activity in action. In some places, the enormous heat from deep within the Earth is conducted outward as if through a valve. Volcanoes are formed where the hot viscous rock from the interior of the earth reaches the outside. Geysers and hot springs are formed because water is heated underground by volcanic activity and then makes its way to the surface through a maze of cracks and crevices. In combination with the extensive additional material (worksheets, interactive tasks), this medium can be used excellently in the classroom. In the detailed data section of the DVD 91 pages of teaching and accompanying material, of which: 26 pages of worksheets and supplements with solutions 17 test tasks 10 interactive tasks

Podcasting
Today, the use of new media has become a matter of course not only in everyday life – schools and teaching, too, benefit from the new technologies and methods, which support active and independent learning. Especially in computer science, ethics and language courses but also in all other subjects, modern media are a valuable pedagogic and didactic asset. This DVD uses the example of podcasts to demonstrate how the possibilities opened up by new media can be applied in the classroom and how the pupils can be taught to handle them in a competent and target-oriented manner. The film is aimed at supporting the use of podcasts at school and encourages making them. This also requires the ability to find information on the Internet and assess it. The film informs on the functionality of podcasts and technical background as well as on the teaching and learning possibilities offered by podcasts – ranging from specific contents to superordinate learning targets such as the advancement of creativity and team spirit.
