As part of her qualitative study, which was recently published by Klinckhardt-Verlag as an open access publication, Sabine Doff, Professor of English Didactics at the University of Bremen, conducted interviews with pupils and teachers at twelve schools in Bremen and Bremerhaven. Berlin-based science communicator Gesine Born also took photographs of the pupils at the participating schools and worked with the children to develop AI-generated visualisations of their ideas for a school that promotes educational justice in the future.
The results of this interview and photo study are twelve school portraits that illustrate concrete ways to implement educational justice and on the basis of which four central fields of action for the establishment of educational justice could be abstracted. This combination of qualitative interview research and visual communication makes the study particularly accessible.
The Bremen-based design office GfG / Gruppe für Gestaltung was responsible for the design of the exhibition ‘Unlock the Future’, the website and all accompanying media. The exhibition uses digital and interactive elements to make complex interrelationships in the field of educational justice tangible. An interactive quiz invites visitors to engage with key theoretical aspects while QR codes throughout the exhibition are linked to in-depth content on the online platform that provides insights into the practical experiences of the participating schools. In this way, the exhibition successfully balances the presentation of theoretical findings at a systemic level with practical solutions at the level of individual schools.
After its first stop at the Bremerhaven City Library, the exhibition can now be seen at the Haus der Wissenschaft Bremen from 13 June to 6 August. An accompanying photo exhibition on the research project under the direction of Gesine Born is also currently on display in the Wall Hall of Bremen City Library.
In summer 2025, the travelling exhibition will continue its journey through the participating schools in Bremen, giving even more pupils and teachers the opportunity to engage with the results and social implications of Sabine Doff's study. The project was funded by the F?rderallianz Bildungsgerechtigkeit.
