Kommentar/Beschreibung

Research about sustainability concerns macro-, meso- and micro-phenomena and their interdependency, many of them of interdisciplinary interest. Das Seminar is rooted in sociology and in psychology, adding interdisciplinary as topics demand from legislation, medicine, and technology assessment research.
Subject matters of this training seminar are, after an introductory step, issues of sociological and psychological concern in the wake of the digital transformation, e.g.: What changes in our attention, memory and social cognition due to internet-use? How does the internet change childhood and adolescence, and how does that impact on developmental issues? Does digitalisation promote equality, or what are new concerns of a digital divide? Which work places are currently foremost endangered by the digital transformation, and what kind of new work opportunities are emerging instead? Which laws protect against unwanted side effects of the digitalisation? When we consider phenomena such as social media, gaming, porn-consumption, the manosphere, etc., what are psychological and medical health concerns, and what is behind “buzz word diagnosis”? Overall, what does “digital literacy” mean in light of the above? Up-to-date interdisciplinary findings help to explore those questions in search of answers. During the start phase, the concrete selection of topics to work on, related to the participant’s interests, will be an important step.
In this training seminar, socially sustainably methods of participation and democratic interaction based on TCI (Cohn) are used while working on selected topics. In an introductory workshop, the modus operandi and basic knowledge is conveyed, and participants choose a topic they would like to work on in teams. Furthermore, student’s teams develop workshop parts about their topics, so that it can be understood and explored together. Theoretical as well as practical insights become tangible through the setting. Upfront reading, short inputs and guided activities in small groups interlock beneficially for participants and the group. The lecturer provides methods and literature, offers practice examples, gives counsel to student’s teams in their preparations, and a differentiated feedback.
Requirement: Willingness of active participation, reflection and interaction are important for participation in this training setting over 7 workshops of 3 hours each. For BA Sociology participants, the Module W1 is studied in 2 stand-alone seminars. It can be complemented with another seminar beside, or with a second seminar of “Sociology meets Psychology”.
Recommended for 3rd semester BA students of Sociology before their internship and thesis, but explicitly open from the 1st semester. Open to Master and Erasmus students, and as capacity allows, to students from other faculties. The training group is limited to 20 participants.
