On this enormous continent called Pangaea, the time of the dinosaurs started about 230 million years ago. Pangaea began to break up. Two land masses formed called Laurasia in the north and Gondwana in the south. 150 to 70 million years ago, Laurasia and Gondwana broke up further into individual land areas in which today’s continents can already be recognised.

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.
