But today our understanding of health influences is defined by many more complex factors such as the money we earn, where we live and how we work. In this program we examine the significant impact of income, region, occupation, race and gender on health, the ways in which this manifests itself and the implications for health both now and in the future. This is an entertaining and informative program that will engage students on both a personal and theoretical level as we look at examples from around Australia and around the world, seeking solutions to inequalities in health.]]> <![CDATA[Variations in Health Status]]> http://www.iken.in http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Guess Who's Coming for Dinne Fat_(new).wmv http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Thumbnails/tn_GuessWhoComingforDinneFat.wmv.jpg <![CDATA[Fat]]> <![CDATA[Fat is a large part of our diet; often we dont realise just how much of it we consume. Staple foodstuffs such as meat, butter and milk all have high fat contents. Additionally, many foods become high in fat when they are prepared in certain ways; low fat potatoes can become high fat chips, for example. This program looks at what fat is, how much of it we eat, what foods it is found in, what function it carries out in the body, what problems it causes, and how we can reduce our consumption of it. We also see the pressures put on us to eat more fat. Advertising tempts us with appealing pictures of healthy people eating fatty products and industry lobby groups are constantly campaigning for their product.]]> <![CDATA[Fat]]> http://www.iken.in http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Guess Who's Coming for Dinner FIBRE_(new).wmv http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Thumbnails/tn_Guess Who's Coming for Dinner FIBRE_(new).wmv.jpg <![CDATA[Fibre]]> <![CDATA[This latest update in the highly popular VEA Guess Whos Coming to Dinner series, looks at the much underplayed role fibre plays in our diet.

They produce symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhoea, or fever. Yet the symptoms are often the same as for gastro-type illnesses caused by other sources (other people carrying the bacteria, unhygienic surfaces, etc). So how do we tell when an illness is caused by food rather than from other sources? In this program we examine what food poisoning is, how it is caused and the methods used to prevent it.]]> <![CDATA[Food Poisoning]]> http://www.iken.in http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Plane and Simple Areas of Polygons and Circles Mathemania 2 Series_(new).wmv http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Thumbnails/tn_Plane and Simple Areas of Polygons and Circles Mathemania 2 Series_(new).wmv.jpg <![CDATA[Plane and Simple: Areas of Polygons and Circles]]> <![CDATA[This program contains clear, simple derivations of area formulae for the common geometric shapes of rectangle, square, parallelogram, rhombus, trapezium, triangle and circle.

Risk is defined, and the concept of negative and positive consequences is explored. Sections covered by the program include: what are risky situations; how do we get into them; what are the likely negative risky situations young people are faced with; what are the consequences of our choices and strategies for dealing with risky situations. The material is covered using acted scenarios - one depicting a shoplifting scene and the other depicting a party where alcohol and cigarettes are being consumed by minors. For both scenarios, a range of endings and therefore consequences is acted out, which contrasts the different outcomes according to the decisions made by the people involved. The program also uses a young peoples forum to thrash out some of the issues covered, where the participants give a range of responses to different questions.]]> <![CDATA[Risky Situations]]> http://www.iken.in http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Guess Who's Coming for Dinner Alcohol_(new).wmv http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Thumbnails/tn_Guess Who's Coming for Dinner Alcohol_(new).wmv.jpg <![CDATA[Alcohol]]> <![CDATA[This program is a complete, year 2000, remake of one our most popular programs from the 1980s.

Nearly 40 years ago a group of white and black Australians travelled through outback NSW on the so-called Freedom Ride. Gary Foley tells the story. The program examines how those bus trips affected the lives of the participants and, in the case of the Freedom Ride, how it served to highlight issues of inequality between white and indigenous Australians. Through these journeys the program poses important questions: how much have we learned as a society about equal access and opportunity for all our citizens? How much have we learned about tolerance and understanding?

In this program we introduce students to the science behind the food we eat. We start by describing what food is, the components found in food and why we need carbohydrates, protein, vitamins and minerals, fats and oils. And we show how to test different foods to determine which of these components are present. We also examine keeping food safe and how it should be handled and stored. Packaging, use-by-dates and refrigeration are also covered as well as long-term storage methods.

Developed countries like Australia have relied on cheap energy to maintain high living standards, but this has produced a culture of wastefulness and inefficiency. This program takes the audience on a tour of an energy efficient house to show how the average home can cut energy use. And to make sure the audience identifies with the subject, we also visit an average Australian household and an average Australian secondary school, to see what theyve done to conserve energy. Once people are educated about the way we use energy, they realise how easy it is to make the small changes that are needed to cut our energy use. This program shows that this results in big savings on our energy bills and makes a significant contribution to the health of our planet.]]> <![CDATA[Energy Conservation]]> http://www.iken.in http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Energy in Ecosystems_(new).wmv http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Thumbnails/tn_Energy in Ecosystems_(new).wmv.jpg <![CDATA[Energy in Ecosystems]]> <![CDATA[Any ecosystem needs energy to sustain it, and the organisms within it. This energy comes in massive quantities from the Sun, although only a tiny fraction of the solar energy hitting the Earth goes towards sustaining life. The flow of energy through an ecosystem is complex, and vital to sustaining all life within it. This program explores energy flow through ecosystems, and how organisms at various levels in the food chain obtain their energy, use it, lose it, and store it. Number, biomass and energy pyramids are introduced, with a focus on the decreasing amounts of energy available to organisms at higher trophic levels. The concepts of niche, niche overlap, competition and limitations on organisms, are also introduced.]]> <![CDATA[Energy in Ecosystems]]> http://www.iken.in http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Global Warming You Can Make a Difference_(new).wmv http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Thumbnails/tn_Global Warming You Can Make a Difference_(new).wmv.jpg <![CDATA[Global Warming]]> <![CDATA[Our appetite for the earths resources and consumer goods has led to increased levels of carbon dioxide entering our atmosphere, trapping more heat from the sun and leading to global warming of the atmosphere.

This program starts with Mendel, and introduces a number of important concepts, principles and definitions that form the basis of the modern understanding of genetics and inheritance. It covers the use of Punnet Squares for predicting the outcome of monohybrid and dihybrid crosses, and looks at gene linkage, sex linkage, and crossing over. The use of a Pedigree Analysis is a particularly useful way to trace how certain traits are passed down generations, and this program introduces Pedigree Analyses using examples of autosomal and sex-linked inheritance.]]> <![CDATA[Genes and Inheritance]]> http://www.iken.in http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Global Tectonics Compeing Theories_(new).wmv http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Thumbnails/tn_Global Tectonics Compeing Theories_(new).wmv.jpg <![CDATA[Global Tectonics]]> <![CDATA[Through dramatisation and animated graphics, this program clearly explains current theories regarding the structure of the Earth, and how the continents came to be in their current positions.

This energy comes in massive quantities from the Sun, although only a tiny fraction of the solar energy hitting the Earth goes towards sustaining life. The flow of energy through an ecosystem is complex, and vital to sustaining all life within it. This program explores energy flow through ecosystems, and how organisms at various levels in the food chain obtain their energy, use it, lose it, and store it. Number, biomass and energy pyramids are introduced, with a focus on the decreasing amounts of energy available to organisms at higher trophic levels. The concepts of niche, niche overlap, competition and limitations on organisms, are also introduced.]]> <![CDATA[Energy in Ecosystems]]> http://www.iken.in http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Global Warming You Can Make a Difference_(new).wmv http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Thumbnails/tn_Global Warming You Can Make a Difference_(new).wmv.jpg <![CDATA[Global Warming]]> <![CDATA[Our appetite for the earths resources and consumer goods has led to increased levels of carbon dioxide entering our atmosphere, trapping more heat from the sun and leading to global warming of the atmosphere. This program argues that action could and should be taken at both international and political levels, then addresses the question of what each of us as individuals can do to reduce our use of non-renewable energy sources and lower our personal carbon footprint on the planet.]]> <![CDATA[Global Warming]]> http://www.iken.in http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Life on a Thread_(new).wmv http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Thumbnails/tn_Life on a Thread_(new).wmv.jpg <![CDATA[Life on a Thread]]> <![CDATA[This program features footage of a number of experimental studies on spiders and investigates how scientists answer questions. The key themes are webs and web spinning, transportation, prey catching and energetics. We see scientists using balloons to imitate and study spider behaviour. Virtual spiders are used to test the theory that spiders use a few simple rules to build their webs. Scientists also monitor carbon dioxide production to calculate the cost of web building. Viewers will learn about spider behaviour, but even more about scientific methodology.]]> <![CDATA[Life on a Thread]]> http://www.iken.in http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Our Earth in Motion Understnding Time, Tides and Seasons_(new).wmv http://www.iken.in/Admin/Learn/Videos/Thumbnails/tn_Our Earth in Motion Understnding Time, Tides and Seasons_(new).wmv.jpg <![CDATA[Our Earth in Motion]]> <![CDATA[Why does the sun rise in the east? Why does the moon change shape? How do tides happen?
