Thesis from 2007 in the field of Education - School Pedagogy, grade: good, University of Kassel, 16 sources in the bibliography, language: German. Abstract: "The four windows through which our children predominantly experience their world today are the screen of the television, the computer monitor, the windshield of the car, and the shop windows." (State Institute for School and Continuing Education, 1992, p. 5) This exaggerated depiction from 1992, which has become more pronounced rather than less so to this day, points to an educational challenge that schools and teaching must increasingly confront today. It concerns the task of discovering new opportunities for our students to gain experiences independently and autonomously, and to process these experiences appropriately in light of the changing living conditions they face.
