NEXTUS Teacher training

Working with NEXTUS in the classroom

NEXTUS is a film platform developed for schools that integrates documentary films as an educational element into lessons. It offers secondary educational institutions free access to award-winning films, film clips and teaching materials on socially relevant topics. The platform has been growing continuously since 2020 and is now used by over 10,000 teachers across Europe. It supports action-oriented learning by illustrating theoretical concepts with real-life stories and is based on the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals and key curriculum content.

Media literacy is an interdisciplinary educational goal in the competence-oriented curricula of German schools. Media education and digital education are firmly anchored in all curricula. Nextus enables teachers to integrate these requirements into their lessons in an appealing and challenging way.

Are you a teacher at a secondary school or university and want to use innovative media in your lessons? Take advantage of the wide range of services offered by NEXTUS free of charge! After registering, you also have the opportunity to take part in our regular, free teacher training courses and find out more about using NEXTUS in the classroom.

On-Site Teacher Trainings

You can book an in-person training session for your school or institution to familiarize your staff with the platform. We will show you how NEXTUS can be used specifically in the classroom. Using a topic relevant to the curriculum—such as the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, AI, or social media—teachers create favorites and folders, download teaching materials, and try out the practical use of the platform in everyday school life.
