Knowledge about media socialization enables graduates the name the importance and consequences of growing up in media cultures, specific types and preferences of media use (and resulting preferred cultural techniques) in everyday life of the pupils and as a result to draw conclusions for pedagogical institutions in relation to competent, educational acting and target-group-specific concepts. 

The course deals with special issues of the thematic field as well as possibilities for their translation and mediation with regards to current disputes.

‒      How does media-use influences individuation and identity-formation. 

‒      Which are developmental tasks and media belong together?

Which models are there to understand the dynamics between individuals, media, and society?
