3 Geography Stills from our new series Weather Hazards Tropical cyclones cause death and destruction. Understanding them is critical to minimising their devastation. This series explores atmospheric systems, what defines a tropical cyclone, and the impact of Hurricane Matthew on the USA and Haiti in Global Atmospheric Circulation Earth s diverse climate and weather patterns are predominantly governed by global atmospheric circulation and ocean currents. This programme looks at different atmospheric phenomena, including the global circulation model and how heating and cooling is driven by wind, air pressure systems, the effects of differences Understanding the Hadley Cell Map It Out min CC AR ClickView Pty Limited

4 The Impact of Tropical Cyclones Tropical cyclones devastate people, property and infrastructure. This programme outlines how cyclones are classified across the world, and then examines the impact of Hurricane Matthew on south-eastern USA and Haiti, in It compares the strategies that wealthy nations, like the USA, employ to protect people and property, and how the lack of resources in a poorer nation, like Haiti, leaves hurricane victims highly vulnerable to death and suffering min CC AR Mapping the Impact Comparing the Impact Tropical Cyclones Tropical cyclones, also called hurricanes and typhoons, cause catastrophic damage when they strike land. When a cyclone s fury unleashes on population centres, death, injury and wholesale destruction follow. This programme explores the life cycle of cyclones how atmospheric conditions, ocean temperatures, and the Earth s rotation combine to create them, how they are driven by winds and eventually weaken after moving over land min CC AR Key Term Bingo Cyclones Formation and Features ClickView Pty Limited

5 History Stills from our new series Wilberg Presents Medieval England England was emerging from the Dark Ages. Crime and punishment was harsh, the gap between rich and poor was enormous and the church influenced all aspects of society. Join Wilburn and Norman in this engaging series, as they explain what life was like in Medieval England. Castles After 1066, William the Conqueror, and subsequent Norman kings, built thousands of castles to ensure their control. Learn about the castles Motte and Bailey design, as Wilburg and Norman explain key features such as moats, keeps, and murder holes! Students will also learn information about castle life including jousting and feasts min CC AR ClickView Pty Limited

6 Crime and Punishment During the Medieval period, trial by ordeal was not uncommon. The accused was tied up and tossed in the water if they floated they were guilty but if they drowned they were innocent. Justice was not exactly being served! However, it wasn t all doom and gloom. After the Norman invasion, Parliament was the highest court in England and Edward I introduced more statutes than any other medieval king min CC AR Daily Life Imagine eating just bread, oat porridge and vegetable stew or trying to impress your rich friends with a dinner of peacock. Daily life was very different for the poor peasants of medieval society, compared to their rich Lords. However, both the rich and poor alike suffered rickets, scurvy and bad teeth, and it wasn t uncommon for a peasant to bath just once a year! min CC AR Diary Entry Influence of the Church An alliance made in heaven! Did you know that William the Conqueror colluded with Pope Alexander II? Or that some of the first schools in England were started by churches? Or that monasteries brewed their own beer? This clip takes a fascinating glimpse into the power and influence of the Church in Medieval England min CC AR ClickView Pty Limited

7 The Feudal System min CC AR After the death of Edward the Confessor, there was a bloody four-way battle for the throne. Discover how William the Conqueror defeated the last of the Viking kings, and one of the richest men in England, in order to seize the throne and all of England s wealth for the Normans. This clip explores the impact this had on the power structure and political system of Medieval England ClickView Pty Limited

8 Personal Dev. and Health Stills from our new titles Coping with Dating Violence and Abuse Dating abuse is on the rise in schools and colleges it is a serious problem that affects many teens, female and male. This programme listens to the experiences of five people who vividly describe their experiences and offer advice on what to do if you are being abused and how/ where to get help. The programme describes five types of dating abuse: physical, emotional, verbal, sexual, and digital. Viewers learn the warning signs of potential abuse situations and how to help others who are caught in abusive relationships min CC AR Mid Secondary Teacher Notes ClickView Pty Limited

9 Defining Sexual Assault This programme defines the terminology that surronds sexual assault, it describes consent, and has survivors of sexual assault tell their stories. It also looks at what survivors of sexual assault can do to seek aid, and how to help friends or relatives who have been assulted. The programmes also covers ways that potential victims and bystanders can help prevent sexual assault from taking place. Mid Secondary Teacher Notes min CC AR ClickView Pty Limited

10 ICT Stills from our new title Meeting the Malwares One out of every three infringing screen content sites contains malware and users of these pirate websites are twenty-eight times more likely to be exposed to hacking, viruses and malicious activity than on legitimate content sites.
