Learn moreThe Honey Bee
Untiringly, the honey bees fly from flower to flower, constantly in search of pollen and sweet nectar. These busy workers live together in a complex social system an insight into which is provided by this film. In vivid pictures, it describes the life of the honey bee in the bee colony and deals with the inhabi- tants of the beehive and their strict division of labour. It shows the worker bees foraging for food and communicating with each other in their characteristic way. The second part of the film illustrates how a new bee colony is formed and describes the course of a bee‘s year from the new queen to the mating flight and the brood cells and finally to the expulsion of the drones in the „slaughter of the drones“. The DVD and the didactically arranged worksheets are per- fectly suited for the classroom both as an introduction to the topic and as a tool for the pupils when working individually or preparing projects.
Learn moreBats
Bats are the only mammals that can fly actively. In mythology they represent the dark element and were the inspiration behind the invention of vampire stories. On account of their nocturnal way of life and their dark appearance, they are considered scary by many people. But the nocturnal hunters are by no means keen on human blood. They mainly hunt insects, thus assuming an important role as natural pest controllers.

Learn moreKirchen
Kirchen haben eine lange Tradition und von außen sind sie heute meistens gut erkennbar. Aber wie sehen Kirchen eigentlich von innen aus? Denn egal ob alt oder neu, groß oder klein ─ so unterschiedlich sie auch aussehen, die meisten Gegenstände findet man in jeder Kirche. Der erste Blick, wenn man eine Kirche betritt, fällt meist auf den Altar und auf das über ihm hängende Kreuz. Für die Hostien, die den Christen so wertvoll sind, gibt es in der Kirche einen ganz besonderen Platz ─ den Tabernakel. Im Tabernakel werden die geweihten Hostien nach dem Abendmahl aufbewahrt. In der Nähe des Tabernakels hängt das ewige Licht.
Learn moreSeltene Erden
Der technische Fortschritt versorgt die Menschheit zuverlässig mit innovativer Technologie. Dies hat die Nachfrage nach spezifischen Rohstoffen, etwa für Mikrochips, Rußpartikelfilter, und Dauermagneten sprunghaft steigen lassen. Metalle wie Lithium, Cer, Neodym und weitere gehören zu den sogenannten „Seltenen Erden“. Der Bedarf nach ihnen hat große geopolitische Auswirkungen, und hat zum Aufstieg Chinas, das den Großteil der Lagerstätten auf seinem Gebiet birgt, entscheidend beigetragen.
