The idea of the ‘wormhole’ is often used in science fiction to visualise different dimensions of a plot.
In this pilot study with pre-school and primary school children, we try to transfer this idea to the development of knowledge of meaning.
For example, how do environmental changes relate to the development of semantic knowledge?

The zEbra project focuses on the relationships between the use of social media and the well-being of children and adolescents. Measurement tools are being developed to validly record the smartphone use of different media and online social interactions of young people aged 10-14.
