The most important challenge in media education is changing the concepts of teaching, learning and information. Nowadays we can´t think that teacher knows and teaches. We have to question the reality of information, the perspective of information and the meaning of information to different individuals and communities. Teaching is therefore other than just transferring “the truth” to pupils heads.
Also the concept of learning has changed. When learning, pupil creates relationships to his environment and to another people in a way that helps him to cope with challenges. Learning is individual and unique to everybody.
It is challenging to understand those issues as a teacher and an educator, as a parent and as a member of different communities, especially when curriculums and learning goals are the same for each pupil in elementary school.
