Mai und . November. 5 Liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen, dieses Heft ist der Frage nach neuen medienpädagogischen Ansätzen für den Waldorfunterricht gewidmet. Die Darstellungen sind der Ertrag einer pädagogischen Fachtagung, die das Lehrerseminar für Waldorfpädagogik Hamburg im Januar dieses Jahres veranstaltet hat. Eine weitere Besonderheit dieses Heftes ist die Vielzahl von Lebensbildern, die hier versammelt sind. Die Anteilnahme der vielen aktiven Kollegen an den Lebensläufen derjenigen Menschen, die sich intensiv mit der Waldorf- schule verbunden hatten, scheint in besonderem Maße kennzeichnend zu sein für unsere Schulbewegung. Vielleicht äußert sich darin neben dem Interesse an den individuellen Lebens- und Berufswegen auch das Emp- fi nden, dass die Verstorbenen mit unserer Arbeit verbunden bleiben und sie inspirierend begleiten. Wir bedanken uns an dieser Stelle bei den vielen Kolleginnen und Kollegen, die solche Lebensbilder erstellen und damit Bewusstsein und Verbundenheit schaff en. Für das Redaktionsteam Rita Schumacher · Florian Stille 6 MEDIEN UND PHILOSOPHIE Angelika Wiehl Medien und Philosophie – ein Symposion am Seminar für Waldorfpädagogik Hamburg Die Medienkunde ist heute ein pädagogisches Arbeitsfeld aller Schulen, Klassenstufen und Fachbereiche, das unter drei Gesichtspunkten bedacht werden kann: Gebrauch der Medien im Allgemeinen, Einsatz der Medien im Schulunterricht und Medien im Kontext pädagogischer Fragestellun- gen. Grundsätzliche Überlegungen im Zeitalter der Medien, der Informa- tionsfl ut und Virtualität berühren immer auch die Philosophie, die sich Erkenntnis- und Lebensfragen widmet. Während das philosophische Er- kennen von der primären Lebenserfahrung ausgeht, gewöhnen wir uns im medialen Zeitalter an »eine umfassende Mentalität des Sekundären«: Denn wir nehmen die Welt durch »ein Dickicht der Vermittlungen, Moderati- onen und Interpretationen« wahr1. Daher geht es heute – wie Botho Strauß sagt – um »die Wiederbegegnung mit dem Primären«2; es geht um die unmittelbare Wahrnehmung von Mensch und Welt; es geht um die schöp- ferische Entdeckung und Entfaltung der persönlichen Fähigkeiten, aber auch um die achtsame Verantwortung gegenüber allen Möglichkeiten des Lebens, auch der digitalen Medien. Achtsamkeit war ein Leitmotiv der Medienwoche an der Rudolf Steiner Schule Hamburg-Bergstedt. Die Einladung zur Präsentation im Januar und die Gespräche mit Kollegen und Schülern, die sich künstlerisch, forschend, sportlich und experimentell mit Internet und digitalen Medien Ein Symposion am Seminar für Waldorfpädagogik Hamburg 7 befasst hatten, bestärkten mich, am . und . Januar das Symposi- on über Medien und Philosophie am Seminar für Waldorfpädagogik Ham- burg zu veranstalten. Es sollte eine Brücke zwischen Waldorfschulpraxis und waldorfpädagogischer Ausbildung gebaut werden, indem erfahrene Waldorfkollegen, Waldorfpädagogikstudierende und Waldorfschüler ihre Erfahrungen im Medienkundeunterricht und mit Medienprojekten im Rahmen der Ausbildungskurse, aber auch als Fortbildungsangebot für tä- tige Waldorfl ehrer ins Gespräch bringen. Wir wollten nicht »die« idealen Lehrplankonzepte der Medienkunde oder des Informatikunterrichts an Waldorfschulen bearbeiten, sondern individuelle Wege und Ideen gestal- tender und kooperativer Unterrichte mit Medien oder über Medien ken- nenlernen und diskutieren. Die Verbindung von Medien und Philosophie wurde bewusst gewählt, denn es scheint ja so zu sein, als nähmen die digi- talen Medien und die Medienkunde in Bezug auf unser Lebensverständnis eine ähnliche Leitfunktion ein, wie sie die Philosophie unter den Wissen- schaften inne hat. Der Umgang mit Medien ist eine Frage der Wahrneh- mungs- und Erkenntnisschulung; Wahrnehmung und Erkenntnis bilden gleichermaßen die Grundlagen der philosophischen Auseinandersetzung und der medialen und digitalen Welterkundung. Daher stand die wahr- nehmende, entdeckende und verstehende Einlassung auf den möglichen Umgang mit Medien auch im Schulunterricht im Vordergrund. Die folgenden Beiträge sind eine Auswahl der Impulsreferate, die auf dem Symposion von tätigen und zukünftigen Waldorfl ehrern gehalten wurden, und sind als Diskussionsbeiträge gedacht. Angelika Ludwig-Huber gibt Anregungen zur Prävention vor der Vereinnahmung durch die mediale Welt; sie reicht ihren Beitrag hier nach, da sie das Symposion kurzfristig absagen musste. Barbara Walther zeigt am Beispiel des Deutschunterrichts, wie trotz der permanenten medialen Reizüberfl utung durch Kontemplati- onsübungen innere Freiräume erlebt werden können. Ihre Schülerin Roya Bockhorst gewährt Einblick in ihre Facebook-Erfahrungen. Monika Blätt- ner berichtet über ihre fünfzehnjährigen Erfahrungen mit Medienpro- jekten und die immer wieder neu zu bedenkenden pädagogischen Aufga- ben des Jugendalters. Viola Rapelius und Michael Werner stellen das Kon- zept der Medienwoche

  • Dearest Community, April Issue – 2020
    Dearest Community, April Issue – 2020 Yes, this is the first time I have addressed you as such! Our perspectives are indeed widening and warming - paradoxically through the limitations and deepest con- cerns set upon us! I believe many, if not all, of us feel challenged to awaken and to take action in these times we are experiencing at this moment. I know that Anthroposophy has given us tools with which to face these situations and to act. I am sure that in attempting to meet the challenges, we can take great steps in our work, both individually and together. Noticeably, I hear the call that rings out from Goethe’s tale The Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily: “The Time is at Hand!”. This tale lends me guidance and I here share some of its images, hoping that, even if you do not know the tale, they may still speak to you. * An image that I have never noticed before (right at the end of the story) gives us a strong warning. When de- scribing the risen Temple and the niche where the Mixed King has now crumbled (as a fallen King of all that retards us), this niche had to be hidden behind a curtain “...which no eye can penetrate, and no hand dare draw aside. For otherwise the crowding multitude would have found no end to their gazing and admiration con- tained there, and would have even suffocated one an- other in the Temple, had not there attention been again attracted to the open space.” I hear in these words a deep warning that we need to take care of where we place our attention, not to the lure or fears of a “fallen materi- alistic realm” but rather to the new space, a risen space, an open space.

    Spring 2016 Newsletterof the Eurythmy Association of Great Britain and Ireland Ed i t o r i a l Te a m : Elisabeth Bamford,Chas Bamford, Christopher Kidman [email protected] Reflections from the Council At the full and exciting Annual General Meeting (AGM) event in Stroud last October – still much in my mind but described elsewhere in this Newsletter so I won’t say more about it – we even managed to squeeze in an abbreviated council meeting. We welcomed Maurice Manning to the team. He, along with Tomie Ando (and with Michael Mehta helping when needed), will be specially concerned with any issues that come up in relation to eurythmists’ employment in schools, as well as being our direct liaison with the Eurythmy Outreach initiative. Roxanne Leonard, our other new council member, could not be present due to the Irish eurythmy tour [see page 3]. She will bring Ireland into the council, which will hopefully make us more aware of what is going on in that part of our Association. For instance, had anyone outside that island heard of the Irish eurythmy tour or known of the CONTENTS ongoing work there on the Foundation Stone Meditation?

    titel 08.09.2002 12:03 Uhr Seite 4 Newsletter from the Section for the Arts of Eurythmy, Speech and Music Easter 2001 RbE34 08.09.2002 13:02 Uhr Seite 1 1 EDITORIAL Dear Readers, The mood of entering the new millennium is continuing; the tasks and demands will increase and probably get more difficult. All the more reason for a will to intensify, renew and work together! Are we discovering new beginning in our ways of working; are we seeking in a contempo- rary way active paths to the sources? The responsibility rests with us; we have to find in our- selves and through ourselves the way to the divine-spiritual in art – but that also means today to penetrate the artistic process and remain awake. A study of the twelve forms of the soul-body and of the seven states of being of the soul forms a part of the building stones for a new way of working, to the path searching for sub- stance – to the second chapter of eurythmy, as Rudolf Steiner calls it. This is part of the task which I have in mind on taking on the leadership of the Section. Of course, it is intended that here belong movement and perceiving, discussion and our finding of a way together in weekend events, and so on. As far as possible and corresponding to the needs, this should take place in all areas – eurythmy, the art of speech and acting, music and puppetry. We stand directly before «Eurythmy at School», Easter 2001, Education as an Art in all stages of life.

    Newsletter Autumn 2015 of the Eurythmy Association of Great Britain and Ireland Editorial Team: Christopher Kidman, Elisabeth Bamford, Chas Bamford [email protected] Reflections from the Council Hmm -- Refections from the Council - now there’s a thing. The Council hasn’t met since I wrote my last refections after our meeting in March at the Barbican. We are experimenting with reducing our meetings to two a year, which seems more manageable for us all and also lowers costs signifcantly. But this does not mean we are doing any less: more if anything, except that now the bulk of it happens in front of the computer or over the phone. So there is no dearth of matters to refect on! I suppose the arranging of what we have come to call the AGM Event has been top of the agenda for us. And honestly, it’s a nerve-wracking business! What do people want as content? Will anybody respond if asked? Will anybody offer anything? But then, oh, so much response, how can we include it all CONTENTS and please everybody? -- Then, where in Stroud shall we have the Event? Oh good, we’ve booked a room at last! Council refections…………………. 1 But -- is it too big? What if nobody comes? And what if A Field in Autumn Laurie Lee……… 2 lots of people come -- will it be big enough? -- And how can we accommodate and feed people so that they can Vitaleurythmie…………………......... 3 afford it?
