Aberglaube
Schwarze Katze und Co.
Glücksbringer, Geister, Horoskope – Fast jeder dritte Europäer ist in irgendeiner Weise abergläubisch. Doch was fällt eigentlich alles unter Aberglaube? Und ist jeder Aberglaube tatsächlich Hokuspokus? Manch eine Bauernregel kann z.B. mit einer meteorologischen Wettervorhersage standhalten. Die psychologische Wirkung von Glücksbringern ist auch nicht zu unterschätzen. Ob diese jedoch einem objektiven Test standhalten, ist fraglich. Dubiose Wahrsager bieten mittlerweile nicht mehr nur auf Jahrmärkten ihre Künste an, wobei sie allein mit einer geschickten Fragetechnik den Kunden auf Glatteis führen können. Dagegen behaupten moderne Hexen, dass sie mit ihren magischen Kräften Zaubertränke brauen können. Doch wenn auch die meisten nicht an solche Medien glauben, lassen sich dennoch viele Formen des Aberglaubens in unserem Alltag finden: Gehören sie auch zu denen, die glauben, dass wenn sie eine Münze am Automaten reiben, sie nicht mehr durchfällt? Alles Quatsch! Viele beschleicht auch immer noch die unterschwellige Angst vor Freitag dem 13. und Ehepaare werden zittrig, wenn es um Brauchtümer bei einer Hochzeit geht.

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.
The Daily Newspaper
Every day, there is a surge of news reaching us via different news channels. In spite of TV and Internet, the daily paper still is one of the most important main sources of news. But how is a newspaper created? The film shows the production of a paper in the course of one day. Starting with the editorial meeting in the morning, in which the topics and deadlines are determined, the film accompanies a journalist during her research work. You can see how a journalistic interview is conducted and what the photographer must consider when taking a press photo. Back in the editorial office, the editor’s work is illustrated, which includes the page layout and the writing of an online article in today’s time. Impressive pictures from the printing centre depict the process from the digital page to the finished newspaper. Together with the comprehensive accompanying material, the DVD is perfectly suited for use at school
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.
