This master's thesis examines the role of film in the teaching of Alpine landscapes in geography and history at secondary school level. Films as a teaching tool play an increasingly important role in the classroom, but there are few or no films on the market that are didactically adapted for use in schools and that relate to the Slovenian territory. Our survey investigated for what purposes secondary school teachers use films, how often they use them and whether they have enough didactically adapted short films available for teaching geography or history. The results showed that teachers do not have enough such material and would like to have more. We therefore produced three short films, two geographical films that give a basic overview of physical and human geography topics in accordance with the curriculum, and one historical film that shows the exploration and discovery of the Alpine landscapes and the influence of the Alpine landscapes on the Slovenian national identity.
