Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) - Doctors warn against the health consequences of the use of digital media in schools. The concerns put forward in science and medicine regarding the use of tablets, smartphones and Wi-Fi as instructional media were not being taken into account, criticized the "doctors working group Digital Media Stuttgart" on Wednesday. This also applied to the green-red state government. "Prime Minister Winfried Kretschmann has to deal not only with the opportunities but also the risks of digitalization, especially for our children," said the spokesman of the Alliance, Jörg Schmid. Kretschmann had previously invoked the competitive advantage of the digitalization of the economy in his policy statement.
