The Meadow as a Biotope
Indigenous Animals and Plants
This DVD offers an insight into the plants and animals typically found in the meadow biotope. In an easily comprehensible way, primary school pupils experience a small, exciting world where various kinds of animals and plants co-exist. The film aims at improving the children’s understanding of animals and at arousing their curiosity for plants and animals. The DVD covers the following aspects of the topic of “meadows”: Types of meadows (creation of a meadow, marshy meadows, dry meadows, wet meadows, fertilised meadows); plants of meadows (cowslips, buttercups, dandelions and many more); layers of the meadow and animal habitats (on plants, on and in the ground, etc.); interference with the diversity of species (effects of mowing and fertilising on the meadow); protection of the meadow (responsibility of humans for nature); use of meadow plants (in medicine, human diet).

Pupils Practise Inclusion
When people come together, no matter under what concomitant circumstances – ultimately, it is about how these people meet and how openly they interact with one another.
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.
