flick made an impressive case for more time behind the wheel in munich. you're watching news live from berlin coming up next shift our look at life in the digital age aspen i'll be back with more news at the top of the hour thanks for watching. the famous naturalist and explorer. to celebrate clicks on the front $250.00. dollars for the discovery. expedition boy on. his wrist bands. seem.

to slow. the brisk. love and respect. welcome to a special edition of shift this week how did this change. tutoring finance. students are increasingly using video games to prepare for school exam. upload smith's videos online and his channel explains everything from mental arithmetic to route numbers. i'm happy to come by welcome to lower schmidt today we have mutts and jungle fever i'll show you how to calculate ratios how you might in moscow. it's youtube channel has over 250000 subscribers and

his educational videos have more than 29000000 clicks. if you can't lick cogs to get it directly then you use a chain like a bicycle. router more than. my plots. you've accomplished with you'll get a tally chart for me that you will use to make graphs the accommodate. kind schmidt is a math teacher and the principal of a secondary school in northern germany. he uses his videos in math class 2 with students can look things up. from time to become a. test of a vision of hope but it goodness i think it's really great that we've got a teacher doing this a task. which i'm sure does as directly encourage explain things well and it's helpful and. even though his videos get thousands of clicks every day doesn't

think he's a you tube star. and i love me no not at all they are shockingly high numbers but it doesn't influence my everyday life i mean i'm kind of across the pen paper phone camera and some light that's only needs to make a video he built the frame himself it all started with an especially difficult class. they wouldn't do their homework and always had the excuse that they didn't understand it or it was annoying i didn't believe them because they always did quite well in class and so i saw some example problems at home with my phone camera in one hand and a pen and the other and i just wrote it out in the 115 or it helps i usually today chis videos are more professional and he's got to grips with the editing software he's surprised by how successful the videos have become. i was

often laughed at for my educational videos but i thought they were good i still do and i'm glad i was right. back button up. there has schmidt's videos are accessible from anywhere from home or during a free school period even on a smartphone the parents are also convinced my momma smile because the end of my mom saw this one and asked me what i was doing at the class blamed it to her and she actually thought it was a really good idea and say what i'm after all. a survey of german students showed that 86 percent use youtube half of those think that it's an important resource for school. schmidt says that's why you tube is the perfect place for his videos if. they're all using you tube so i think of that there anyway but it's easy to switch from watching a music video to a month's video but it's life form perhaps that's the magic of educational videos and you tube and where they work so well what they might not be as successful on

a learning platform for me and i'm only for the life of. me and. will continue to produce new episodes there's no shortage of topics. but. let's group chats and whiteboards digital technology is increasingly being used in schools like in a secondary school in this was town of media has. how does technology change lessons and how can students benefit. christoph goes to the secondary school in need a high sleep in his back he's not only carrying books no pads and exercises but i pad which he received on his 1st day of school like every student. today his 1st period is english. it's no different from other schools it's just another form of organization that's what the school system is no

different. no money no we have normal tasks in class we just solve them on our own you can do that now for 5 minutes and then the real question moment on him english is the english teacher creates a folder for each student on google drive and only the teacher and the individual student can access the folder that all the document all documents are uploaded there and that he or she has an online document with a teacher can leave feedback and grades. feedback from moment on in order to get. the students are all networked they can practice the new vocabulary they've learned on each other. what. price will not have that. the child is immediately visible to the teacher giving him the opportunity to intervene correct and explain.

the advantage for the students with these digital learning platforms is that they can get immediate feedback and they're doing the exercises by the minute they can see what mistakes they've made which answers are correct and where they can improve because he was easy for peace and that way they can repeat the exercise the make progress to a box. network studying is more efficient and it also encourages the students to exchange ideas and communicate with one another. when he does leave they've adapted the lessons to suit the new system. and the school has invested in educational supplies infrastructure devices and software. is approved personalia they need human resources but you also need certain structural adjustments and a really quick internet connection because you've got about 400 people using the internet at the same time. and it's important to have a teaching concept that fits with digitalisation that encourages organization and

self responsibility amongst the students. the room where the classes take place looks very different to conventional classroom tasks are often solved almost in science individually or in small groups. why does no matter where worth the money. it may seem like a paradox at 1st even though the students are sitting in front of digital devices they're actually cooperating move on practicing their social competencies. and the teacher too becomes a coach rather than electra or. group norman. but the school office many offline opportunities to run. for. the school band as we have seen downstairs. the teachers are well versed in many creative subjects. there's also serving the

instructions are all on the i pad. teaches anita hosley want to use digitalisation to their advantage and to optimize the school's learning methods. in arts class students sometimes work with graphic software but mostly with conventional pencils and paint. us decision i can do. is not actually the school model that's changed how ticks and legal should allow teaching. you names you know get it out see all there's been a sort of generational transition uni you know how many young innovative new tensions have joined the team that worked all summer and there was a move to change things the groove. and on the political strategic a level you should get a new. piece about making the school more contemporary sure well it's easy to

get married next alter and contemporary not only means digitalisation but also cooperation on make a space day christoph shows primary school students how to program computer games. this really it's important to understand how it works but also how to handle it. he wants to start an apprenticeship as electronics engineer in autumn has school prepared him for what's to come if. i think you can take quite a lot from it if you use it correctly. i learned a lot in the style of her how to get good feedback on how to keep improving how to work on an i pod and how to work independently or even more independently it's on the shelf and shelf organization is important to of and that's also something that you learn in the 3 years here this is our piece genitalia.

most people who use the internet including children and teenagers of course will be confronted with hate speech at some point a german schools started promoting how many is communication online. for the 7th grade is that a burn in high school eunice o'mara is a star he's also the coach who will teach them about tolerance and open mindedness on the internet that if i was a 100 i think it's cool i really like their videos. because they counter racism with sometimes that's the other we were by like that we can take photos with them and i think that's really exciting and cool. as if they make awesome videos. very well so. each of us from the channel satirically deal with the prejudice towards muslims is the topic in this video is the headscarf.

today the students are producing their own videos the topic is dealing with negative comments online eunice is experienced in this area because the data to have videos often attract haters if international birth when i think it's quite shocking the things people say they have no empathy for that's what it feels like you have. to feel you lose too much energy if you only deal with the hate theater person isn't interested in dialogue they just want to cause hurt because there's no point discussing anything with them that's. something so it's going to have several kids have experienced hate themselves today's workshop has given them more confidence but it's just good if i've learned that you should just ignore it i'm proud and not sink to that level it happens it only snooty it was before i met it with my skin color that i've grown up in germany i'll go i just have to deal with that even if it is

a presented you to be eunice is happy with the results and there's one last. comment when it comes to writing comments myself i always imagine the person is in front of me or what i say the same things then i find when i'm the recipient of hate i just wasn't concerned myself with it. that strongly advise against reading and paying attention to the hate speech. and i just flag the leader to ignore its. position made me. ignore you. come and sort of come. at the end of the day is supposed to be fun.

it was the night everything changed. the night every day people made history. the night of my big country came together. it was. the fault of the law. and justice and freedom the 1st words of the german national anthem and the 3 central valley was that form the foundation of this country. i hide as a child and freedom can only flourish if everybody holds it dear even lives a life of freedom and defends it before high school freedom for the last part of our germany.

welcome to the what is the gate here for dispelling the fire trucks to talk about to. freeze that's a. clear. blue sky. once. it was the night when the seemingly inconceivable became reality the fall of the berlin wall 25 years later these events were recreated on a film set of bornholmer strasse including the emotions that overcame many east german citizens as.
