Products MedienLB stands for innovative DVDs for use in schools. Interactive worksheets, subtitles for enhancing reading ability, multilingualism as well as comprehensive accompanying material are the outstanding characteristics of the MedienLB DVDs. The MedienLB products are didactic DVDs for use in schools in the first place. Apart from sequenced films, the media contain also photo series, animations, diagrams, text plates and many other options to be called up and used directly during lessons. Furthermore, each medium of the MedienLB company contains an extensive PC ROM part, in which teachers do not only obtain the spoken texts, link lists, information on curricula and education standards, but are above all provided with the additional materials, the core pieces that have been particularly adapted to each film. They do not only encompass coloured transparencies, traditional printed worksheets, footage but MedienLB are the first on the market who have provided also interactive worksheets since the year 2008. As a worksheet does not become interactive simply by the pupil’s writing his or her name on it, MedienLB produces really interactive worksheets with the notebook software of the powerful partner Smart Technologies. Thus, the pupils have the possibility of achieving learning success playfully by using up-to-date technology. In particular the new interactive worksheets are ideally suited for online distribution as well. All MedienLB media offer at least three soundtracks (German, English, Turkish and, if need be, French, Italian and Slovenian). All MedienLB productions are new productions so that reuse of archival footage is almost impossible. |

| Success Due to the clear structure of its media and their practical concept, MedienLB has developed, during the last four years, into the largest supplier of didactic in-house productions. At present the media are available in German-speaking areas (Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Liechtenstein) as well as in Sweden. Thanks, not least, to MedienLB, the German education market has been noticeably livened up by an innovative and highly motivated new supplier, which justifies optimism especially in view of future PISA tests. |
