Clemens Beisel, a renowned social pedagogue with over a decade of experience in media pedagogy, is set to deliver a lecture on the topic of "Growing up with a mobile phone - can that work?" in Münster, Germany. The event, hosted by the University of Applied Sciences Münster, is scheduled for Thursday, 3rd July, at the Annette-von-Droste-Hülshoff-Gymnasium auditorium (Green Street 38).

Beisel's lecture aims to provide practical tips and insights for parents, teachers, and pedagogical professionals, focusing on how they can support children in navigating the digital world responsibly. His advice is based on his extensive work with school classes and parents, as well as his long-standing engagement with foundations and health insurance companies.

One of the key aspects of Beisel's approach is preventive work on social media, emphasising the importance of guiding children "safely and relaxedly through the digital world." He encourages adults to reflect on their own media usage behaviour, as it significantly influences children from an early age.

In general, experts like Beisel often recommend setting clear and consistent rules about media usage, being a role model by demonstrating balanced media use, encouraging active and critical engagement with media content, promoting alternative activities, maintaining open communication, and creating media-free zones or times within the home.

While specific practical tips from Beisel's lecture may not be readily available online, attending the event or accessing publications or recordings from his presentation would provide precise and practical guidance tailored to the digital age. The lecture promises to delve into the opportunities and risks of social networks, offering valuable insights for those seeking to support their children in healthy media use.

The lecture is part of a broader conversation about the impact of media on children, with related topics such as the VHS parental enlightenment: "The internet forgets nothing!" and the digital threat in the children's room gaining attention. As the AOK warns against excessive media consumption, Beisel's lecture offers a timely and relevant contribution to this important discussion.

Registration for the lecture is required via the university's website. Interested individuals are encouraged to secure their place to gain valuable insights and practical advice on supporting children in their digital journey.
