"Seit 2001 ist die TLM-Medienwerkstatt in Thüringen unterwegs um medienpädagogische Projekte in Kindergärten, Schulen, Jugendclubs, Freizeitheimen und in Einrichtungen der Behindertenarbeit zu unterstützen und durchzuführen. Ein Anlass, Bilanz zu ziehen! In diesem Erfahrungsbericht wird die bis

herige Arbeit vorgestellt und reflektiert. Die AutorInnen beleuchten die Ansätze, Rahmenbedingungen und Methoden, mit denen die TLM-Medienwerkstatt an den Start gegangen ist, fassen die Erfahrungen aus fünf Jahren mobiler Medienarbeit zusammen und zeigen, welche medienpädagogischen Modelle und Konzepte für die unterschiedlichen Aufgaben und Arbeitsbereiche entwickelt wurden. Auch die Kooperationspartner der Medienwerkstatt kommen zu Wort: In einer umfangreichen Evaluation wurden sie zu ihren Eindrücken und Erfahrungen befragt. Ihre Projektberichte bieten zudem wertvolle Hinweise für eine erfolgreiche Integration medienpädagogischer Projektarbeit in den Alltag von Bildungsinstitutionen." (Buchrücken)

Mit der Differenzierung in didaktische Prinzipien und Medienformate einerseits sowie konkrete methodische Bausteine und Übungen andererseits ist ein flexibles und anschlussfähiges medienpädagogisches Konzept entstanden, das - sofern nicht als Rezept missverstanden - die medienpädagogische Arbeit von PädagogInnen in schulischen und in außerschulischen Kontexten bereichern kann."

al tools and frameworks to support their role in promoting a more inclusive and peaceful society. By applying pluralism concepts and tools to their work, journalists can promote respect for diversity by facilitating dialogue and understanding and by contributing to social cohesion in fragile and post-conflict contexts, such as South Sudan. This toolkit aims to empower media practitioners in their important role in supporting peacebuilding. The toolkit covers comprehensive content to support media practitioners with the necessary knowledge and tools to identify and discuss issues of inclusion and exclusion in a conflict-sensitive approach. The curriculum will help media actors, including the Association for Media Development in South Sudan (AMDISS) and other SIMA partners, to adopt long-term practices to integrate pluralism into their day-to-day work to support unbiased, accurate and fair content development while reducing discriminatory and divisive narratives that contribute to exclusionary attitudes."

"This manual offers ideas on how to discuss a violent past in an active manner. The manual mostly focuses on methodology: how to make learning about the past interesting for learners. There is less focus on the specific content of the past. To spark learner’s interest in the (violent) past, it is

helpful to choose a learner-centered approach. This manual uses the following elements of learner-centered learning: to give learners a voice in what they want to learn about the past based on their own interests, to first let them find out by themselves before information is provided, to foster curiosity, to encourage joint learning and to link local findings with the wider history.
Encouraging discussion: As the title shows, a main aim of this manual is to provide learners – and facilitators – with activities to not only learn about the past, but also to discuss it. The activities let learners practice key elements of discussion, such as active listening (with the attempt to understand the other well), responding to each other’s statements or arguments, not judging others’ opinions, aiming to understand motives and intentions, etc. In this process, it is the facilitator’s task to guide the discussion, to keep it on topic and not let it get personal, ensure that different perspectives are included and that all learners can express themselves."
