Junior Professor Dr Anke Heyder attended a written interview with the TESTEd project (Towards a European Syllabus in Teacher Education) in which she reports on the importance of functional media use among children and young people and our research on the topic. 

Our project team spent this year's retreat in snowy Schwelm. Over the three days, the meeting focussed on data analysis and the writing of publications.

The RuhrNetwork was also represented at this year's Addiction Congress in Berlin and presented the results of a systematic meta-review of the research group on "Functional digital media use in children and adolescents".

The entire project team spent three successful workshop days with the best view in Haltern am See. They worked on the concept for the planned funding applications, finalized a current study, and developed a questionnaire to assess the degree of functional use of digital media.
