Media Education

Media Education

The Media Education (LPO I, § 115) is a "pedagogical qualification" with a first state ex-amination in accordance with LPO I, § 111. The programme is open to all student teachers at LMU and qualifies them as experts for pedagogical and factual issues in the age of mediatisation and digitalisation in schools. The focus of the programme is the systematic teaching of theoretically sound, evidence-based and practice-related core competences for teaching in a digital world. The degree programme covers the areas of media education, media didactics, informatics education and media design and thus integrates pedagogical, psychological, informatics and informa-tion technology as well as media design components. Special importance is attached to the design, evaluation and re-design of media-related and media-supported learning environments on the basis of a transparent normative reflection and justification of contemporary learning and educa-tional goals, their evidence-oriented media implementation and a competent and creative use of contemporary media options.

Contribution of the Chair

Media Education is based at the chair and offers basic and advanced seminars in the areas of media education, media didactics and informatics or informatics-technical knowledge for the teaching profession. In close coordination with the Competence Network Media Education and Digitalisation (KMBD), this range of courses is supplemented by practical workshops on media de-sign for contemporary media-supported teaching.
Within the framework of these courses, the basics of media education such as media socialisation and media use behaviour of children and young people, problems of media socialisation such as cyberbullying and media-related addictions, media-related educational goals such as media compe-tence and digital education as well as evidence-oriented design and evaluation of media-related and media-supported learning environments are systematically taught. The in-depth seminars deal with a broad spectrum of selected current media education topics such as media ethics and digital ethics, social media, computer games, learning with films, image didactics or gamification in the classroom.
