Explanation of the quality indicator "Target group oriented towards the mass media and social media"
Traditional mass media and new media (the Internet and social media) play important roles in shaping ideas and behaviours. Today, new media also have more important roles in the education process.
- Teachers often use new media in classroom.
- Students experience more media-integrated teaching.
- Training not only includes learners in education plans but also equips classrooms with new devices (e.g. computers and digital whiteboards) to encourage interactive learning.
Moreover, the mass media often carry and amplify negative messages such as racism, discrimination and violence. Especially in intercultural contexts, students must have accurate awareness of the extent of these phenomena and problems, understanding that they do not always have direct impacts on everyday life.
