Prejudices shape our perception, our social coexistence and therefore everyday life in education. The seminar introduces the concept of prejudice-conscious education, offers space for self- reflection regarding individual prejudices and analyses methods and approaches to stereotypes. There is a focus on exercises which can be implemented with the children in school and on becoming familiar with prejudice-conscious material for everyday life in school, self- reflection as well as the exchange between the participants.
