Abstract
Children are increasingly being consumed by screen technologies, which entails a multitude of negative consequences, such as the development of materialistic values, depression, natural disconnection or societal homogenization. While the current efforts of digitalizing the primary schools of Germany focus on the provision of screen technologies and the vocational trainings of teachers about the practical usability of these devices, there is only little emphasis on educating children about the potential negative influences of screen technologies. With reference to scientific literature as well as qualitative data collected in two primary schools in Hamburg, Germany, this study focuses on why it is important to adjust the primary school curricula and vocational trainings of Hamburg towards educating children about the potential negative influences of screen technologies. Furthermore, it gives one concrete policy recommendation on how to efficiently counteract the negative entailments of screen technologies in future.
