In winter semester 2012/13, under the guidance of teaching staff, students in the Applied Cognition and Media Studies BSc course developed concepts and wrote scripts to then produce short films on the theme of stereotypes and discrimination in day-to-day university life. The films are based on intensive theoretical engagement with stereotypes and the associated mechanisms. On the practical side, students learned camera skills and video editing techniques. The theoretical and practical input was supported by talks from practitioners in gender mainstreaming, diversity management and anti-discrimination at the University of Duisburg-Essen.
