This report by Dr. Claudia Lampert and Kira Thiel provides an overview of how families in Germany experienced the lockdown phase – in particular, the switch from face-to-face to distance learning – and to what extent this has changed their media use.
It is part of the Kids’ Digital Lives in COVID-19 Times (KiDiCoTi) project, which examines the media use of 10- to 18-year-olds during the phase of school lockdowns in 15 European countries in the summer of 2020. Results from the German sub-sample are based on responses from 513 cases (parent-child dyads).
