Die Tricks der Kaufhäuser
„Schau dich schlau!“ begibt sich in eine der ältesten deutschen Warenhausketten und zeigt an diesem Beispiel, was alles nötig ist, damit die Kunden sorgenfrei einkaufen können. Joey Grit Winkler und Fero Andersen werfen einen Blick hinter die Kulissen der ältesten deutschen Warenhauskette um zu erfahren, wie Warenhäuser funktionieren. Warum gibt es in Kaufhäusern so gut wie keine Fenster? Wie funktioniert eine Rolltreppe? Außerdem nehmen die beiden Moderatoren die Logistik eines Kaufhauses unter die Lupe und wollen wissen, mit welchen Tricks die Verkaufspsychologen uns zum Kauf animieren wollen. Zu guter letzt widmen sie sich noch dem geradezu unscheinbaren Thema Plastiktüte.

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.
Computer Games
This film covers the topic of computer games in a variety of ways and from many different angles. Apart from the fascina- tion of computer games for users, the historical development as well as the production of computer games are described. The established genres are introduced, the guidelines of the German BPjM are explained. In light of recent public discussions, a neutral overview of the pros and cons of playing computer games is given, and different kinds of player behaviour are outlined. In this film, the pupils will recognise many aspects of their favourite pastime that encourage an independent, constructive use of this medium and reinforce their media competency. The film and teaching material are very closely related to the real-life situation.
Product Piracy
Counterfeiting takes place in almost all economic sectors – textiles, watches, car parts, machine parts, tools, accessories, software and medicines. Some counterfeits are easy to recognise, others are so well-executed that even experts have difficulty distinguishing between original and imitation. This DVD covers the development of a product from idea to manufacture. Once a product has become a trademark, product pirates appear on the scene.
