Abstract :
IVICA I MARICA (HANSEL AND GRETEL) is a project of designing an interactive-educational multimedia DVD for children. The very idea of designing the DVD stemmed from personal experience and suggestions from both teachers and students. Namely, the title of the DVD hides the education of children in the field of environment protection, litter and waste problems, the harmful agents that surround us and the polluters of today. From the very beginning, the efforts were aimed at motivating children to acquire knowledge of the pollutants of today. On the other hand, children get to know about the possibilities of sorting the garbage, i.e. of waste packages management as well as about the optimistic views of the future in this realm. Besides the educational part, the DVD as well contains the attractive funny contents via which the knowledge acquired through the use of the DVD and play can be checked.
