Typisch Deutsch
In Deutschland leben etwa 80 Millionen Einwohner, die Nationalflagge hat die Farben Schwarz-Rot-Gold, die Bundeshauptstadt ist Berlin. Soviel weiß eigentlich noch jeder, der in Deutschland lebt. Aber es gibt noch einiges mehr, was man über Deutschland wissen sollte. Schon bei der Frage nach der Anzahl der Bundesländer, der Nachbarstaaten oder dem längsten Fluss Deutschlands geraten einige ins Stocken. "Schau dich schlau!" möchte mit dieser Sendung Deutschland den Deutschen ein Stückchen näher bringen und ihnen helfen, ihr Land besser kennen zu lernen. Joey Grit Winkler und Fero Andersen unterziehen sich daher erst einmal dem "Schau dich schlau!"-Einbürgerungstest. Am Ende der Sendung erfährt der Zuschauer unter anderem, wer sich in den Kategorien "deutsche Erfinder" und "deutsche Geschichte" besser auskennt. Während Joey und Fero die zum Teil kniffligen Fragen beantworten, erfährt der Zuschauer auch, warum eines der deutschen Nationalgerichte "Sauerkraut mit Bratwurst" ist und wie es hergestellt wird. Fleiß, Pünktlichkeit und Ordnungssinn – das sind nur einige der "typisch deutschen" Tugenden. "Schau dich schlau!" erklärt humorvoll, warum sie den Deutschen zugeschrieben werden, und prüft, ob das tatsächlich so zutrifft.

„Well, the Blues is what you go through when you wake up in the morning, and when you go to sleep, and you know, the Blues follows you, wherever you go. The Blues ist the truth to me, you know, the Blues is a healer, and whatever you‘re going through, you know, with the Blues, you know, it can satisfy your soul in other words, it can heal you if you’re going through changes, you know, and these days all of us go through changes: children, the young generation, grown-ups, you know, everybody. I think in my opinion, from my experience, have and get the Blues these days.“

Heute ist Druck überall und kaum aus unserem Leben wegzudenken. Die Möglichkeiten, die moderne Druckverfahren heute bieten, wären noch vor wenigen Jahrzehnten undenkbar gewesen. Um so weit zu kommen, musste der Druck einen langen Weg zurücklegen. Das Prinzip ist bereits Jahrtausende alt.
Learn moreLichtverschmutzung
Die Elektrifizierung bescherte der Menschheit einen technologischen Quantensprung. Insbesondere die Möglichkeit elektrischer Beleuchtung dehnte die Produktivitätszeiträume der Menschen aus. Dass künstliche Beleuchtung durchaus als „Lichtverschmutzung“ mit negativen Auswirkungen auf Menschen, Tiere und Pflanzen aufgefasst werden kann, ist eine vergleichsweise neue Erkenntnis.

Learn moreSharks
The enormous size of the jaws and the frightening teeth of sharks have always attracted people's interest. Horrifying news of attacks on humans did the rest – "Jaws“: Steven Spielberg turned this best seller by Peter Benchley into a world-famous film. The story, published in 1974, is based on true events. In the 1960s, sharks were often spotted off America's coasts and the press was generous with reports often so scary that fear was fuelled. One day, as a shark stranded, it was a unique opportunity for the crowd of perplexed swimmers to observe the supposedly terrible monster at close range. Watching living sharks from special protective cages is a popular albeit expensive tourist attraction. It is an unforgettable experience to watch and photograph a shark swimming freely and gliding gracefully.
Learn moreBirds
This DVD from the Vertebrates series comprehensively introduces birds by means of various examples of indigenous, tropical and polar bird species. Among other things, it provides information on typical bird characteristics such as skeleton and bone structure, structure and function of the beak and feathers as well as the principle of light-weightness. Impressive close-ups of prepared bird bones as well as of a feather’s vane serve to illustrate these aspects. The adaptability of birds to the environments of air, land and water as well as to different kinds of food are shown by means of the examples of typical representatives of the species such as eagle and falcon, emu, duck, moorhen and kingfisher. Here, the pupils also learn about the relation between diet and shape of beak. The reproduction and breeding of birds is illustrated with impressive outdoor pictures of courtship and nest-building with different bird species, the hatching of a chick, the raising of grey herons up to the squabs’ first attempts at flying. Furthermore, the menu includes additional pictures as well as a tabular list of the different breeding times of altricial and precocial birds. Thus, this DVD offers flexibility and variety in the classroom and is especially suited for interactive learning.
Learn moreThe White Stork
People have always found the white stork fascinating. It is a large, conspicuous bird, which exposes itself to human curiosity by the choice of its nesting places, therefore people tend to assign meaning to its behaviour. Today, the white stork is still believed to bring good luck. The film covers the characteristics of white storks, their appearance and behaviour as well as the order of Ciconiiformes. The habits of the white storks, their habitats and migration routes are shown in the film, too. In the Reproduction Chapter, we can see interesting pictures of hatching chicks and their first attempts at flying. The DVD includes first-grade bonus material on the bird migration research carried out by the Max Planck Research Centre for Ornithology headed by Peter Berthold. The white stork’s cultural significance and myths told about it as well as the ties between countries, which are strengthened by the “European Stork Villages”, are covered, too. The bonus material is only available in German and adds approximately 14 minutes to the film.
Learn moreBasics of BIOLOGY I
Basics of Biology examines general biological issues that help to expand and consolidate basic biological knowledge. The first film of this series deals with the structure of the plant cell. It centres around the structure and function of plant tissue such as the xylem, root cells and stomata as well as the functions of the chloroplasts. In the second chapter the issue of photosynthesis and the elements involved in it are dealt with. With tests and experiments impacts of light and CO2 on photosynthesis are demonstrated and explained. The third part explains human respiration. The rising oxygen consumption of a woman athlete brought on by physical effort on the moving walkway is shown. What happens when the physical stress becomes too strong and the amount of oxygen inhaled is no longer sufficient? The transition from aerobic respiration to anaerobic respiration is vividly illustrated. Together with the extensive accompanying material the didactic DVD is ideally suited for use in the classroom.
