About the Event
Chatbots, TikTok, WhatsApp—wherever young people are, media use and the promotion of critical thinking and safe use are automatically involved. But how do you teach these skills? Working with young people does not automatically make you a media expert. Even if you keep up to date, it can be helpful to know about useful resources and contacts. At the fair, education professionals can get an overview of projects, methods, and materials that strengthen media literacy and establish contacts with regional and national points of contact.
