Why are social networks so popular even though they are also heavily criticized? What does Facebook actually do with user data and is the company allowed to do anything? Does Twitter work differently? And what is this clubhouse that everyone is talking about now?

This is just one of the topics that the c’t in cooperation with the Westermann Gruppe offers free webinars for teachers. After the start of the pilot project by Eva-Maria Weiß with the functioning of social networks on February 4th, c’t editor Jan Mahn continues, who on February 8th inspires teachers and ultimately also students for programming. He presents projects with hardware and software that are suitable for the classroom.

On 11. February follows Kim Sartorius from c’t and holds a webinar on video conferencing solutions. The focus is on BigBlueButton, which is used by many schools. Getting started with the software is certainly also helpful for using other services. Above all, teachers who have little experience with video conferencing should be addressed.

Questions can of course also be asked in the one-hour webinars. To register, go here:
