Media education project week

In the week from November 22 to 26, 2021, class 8b of the Freie Waldorfschule Dresden took another intensive look at their self-examination work. Divided into three groups, the class worked on radio, newspapers and film.

The radio group worked on recordings of their self-assessment work, which they then edited and customized. The contributions they produced were broadcast on Coloradio on November 28 from 3 to 4 pm. "Coloradio is a station with an open studio where anyone can present their work, music or anything else, which is a great concept," says Karoline (13).

For the newspaper, the students worked in pairs and wrote about each other's projects. A newspaper was created that will also be published as a supplement to the "Gorier", our school newspaper.

"After learning the basics of film and editing, we created our own storyboard, a little script, and filmed our own little movie about our individual eighth grade project," Flora (13), who was part of the film group, told us.

"It's very important that our young people get to grips with media processes. With the Media Culture Center and Coloradio, we had great partners with whom this was possible. It was a pleasure to watch the pupils work," says Bernhard Fürst, who created the concept for this project week together with Franziska Chalk, the class teacher.
