Social media takes up the majority of young people's screen time and has an impact on various areas of life. They become relevant with the first smartphone at the latest. The online seminar series gives educational professionals the opportunity to get to know current social media platforms better. This allows them to get to grips with the various dimensions of social media and exchange ideas about the educational possibilities of social media.
The seminars take place from 10:00 to 12:30 (exception date on 06.02.2024:13:00-15:30). A participation fee of 25 euros is charged per event. Afterwards, participants are invited to a "virtual coffee round". This allows professionals to exchange ideas with each other and with the seminar leaders so that the topics covered are not only remembered as input, but are also reflected in practice in the long term.
