Abstract

The following article highlights the guidelines of digitalisation in everyday life and provides guidance for Practical Theology. Digital transformation should not be understood exclusively as a technical principle. Along with this, the question of the educational mandate in the intersection area of school and education arises in a new way. In this way, media didactics and religious education can form sustainable educational arrangements.
