Youth Movement
Then and Today
Dancing until your feet hurt: Here, at the meeting on the Hoher Meissner near Kassel, 3,500 participants from Boy Scout associations, youth and Wandervogel groups from all over the German-speaking region have gathered. They want to celebrate, simply get to know each other and commemorate a historic anniversary. The same place a hundred years ago: In 1913, student groups, Wandervögel, educational reformers and life reformers met there for the first time forming a huge camp as the Free German Youth. Back then, there was a lot of dancing, too. But the aim was to constitute a counter movement to the consumer culture, warmongering and blind faith in authority of that time. A “youth movement” had formed whose members appeared together there for the first time. In the archives of the German Youth Movement at Ludwigstein Castle, photo albums and diaries from that time have been kept until today.

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.
