Licht und Farbe
Lebenselexiere der Erde
Ohne Licht würde auf unserer Erde kaum Leben existieren. Pflanzen brauchen diese elektromagentischen Wellen, um zu wachsen und durch den Vorgang der Photosynthese unter anderem Sauerstoff zu produzieren. Genauso sind Farben wesentlicher Bestandteil in der Natur und haben ihre eigene Bedeutung. Auffällige Färbungen bei Reptilien sollen Gefahr signalisieren, während ein möglichst prächtiges Federkleid bei Vögeln ihre Attraktivität steigern soll. Genau wie andere Arten reagieren auch Menschen auf Licht und Farben. „Schau dich schlau!“ zeigt, wie die beiden Komponenten eingesetzt werden, um uns Wohlbehagen zu bescheren oder uns zum Beispiel zum Kaufen zu animieren. Joey Grit Winkler besucht ein Lichtlabor, wo sie genau erfährt, was Licht überhaupt ist, und man ihr erklärt, wieso beispielsweise die Sonne beim Untergehen rot wird. Außerdem findet Joey heraus, welchen Einfluss Licht auf unsere Stimmung hat und wie die mit bloßem Auge unsichtbaren Wellen für medizinische Zwecke eingesetzt werden. Aber genauso wie Licht heilen kann, so kann es auch krank machen. In „Schau dich schlau!“ erläutert Joey Grit Winkler alles Wissenswerte über Licht!

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.
Ceramic
Ceramics are indispensable in our everyday lives. We eat from ceramic plates, drink from ceramic cups, use tiled ceramic bathrooms. But how is ceramic manufactured? The film reveals the secrets of this fascinating material! We get to know more about the beginnings of ceramic in the Old World of Egypt and Mesopotamia, about Greece, China and Rome. We gain interesting insights into the valuable earthenware and are also shown the exquisite further development of the "white gold". Today this versatile material is irreplaceable in industry, too. Whether in space or as an easily compatible substitute in medicine, ceramic is applied in many places.
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. The DVD is a useful support for teachers applying new media and wishing to show their pupils how to handle Running Time: 20:29 ms them in a sensible way.
