MP3
A Success Story from Germany
In an underground in the morning. Pupils, employees, craftspeople – many of them have one thing in common. They listen to music: rock or classical music, techno or folk, country or jazz. The players are small and light, a lot of people use their mobiles or smart phones. How is that possible, considering that huge amounts of digital data are required for transmitting and saving music? MP3 has drastically changed the world of music. With the MP3 method, the amount of data can be considerably reduced without undesirable quality loss. Thus, music can be transmitted via the Internet and saved on MP3 players.

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.
Air Traffic
Being able to fly has been a dream of humanity from time immemorial. But it does not even date back a century that people actually started being able to travel through the air. Since the 1960s, the number of flight passengers has been constantly increasing. Thus, the airspace is no longer dominated by birds but by man-made flying objects.
Tolerance
“Tolerance means being generous and kind to other people and helping them, too.”
