MEDIAWARE
Educación mediática para todos: los ciudadanos critican y combaten las noticias falsas
SOBRE NOSOTROS
El proyecto MediAware pretende fomentar competencias que promuevan la ciudadanía activa mediante la detección y la lucha contra la desinformación y las noticias falsas a través de métodos de empoderamiento y dialogo. La desinformación ha estado presente desde el principio de los tiempos, pero la era digital y las redes sociales han cambiado fundamentalmente la forma en que recibimos, compartimos y absorbemos información. El objetivo del proyecto es equipar a los educadores con el conocimiento y las habilidades para capacitar a adultos y jóvenes en entornos formativos formales y no formales para reconocer cómo se produce la información, evaluar críticamente el contenido y tomar decisiones informadas como usuarios y productores de información y contenido de medios.
RESULTADOS DEL PROYECTO
The MediAware Handbook: "Media, Citizenship, and Democracy" addresses the critical issue of misinformation, fake news, and active citizenship. This pedagogical handbook includes theoretical and basic concepts, training methods, tips, and exploitation guidelines to equip educators with the knowledge and skills necessary to empower their students to critically evaluate information and make informed decisions as users and producers of media content. The handbook serves as an essential tool for promoting active citizenship, addressing the challenges of the digital age and social media, and providing practical strategies to tackle the spread of fake news and misinformation. By using this guide, educators can create a safe and informed learning environment that promotes democratic values and empowers students to become responsible and engaged citizens.
The MediAware Training Kit is supported by a "Fact Checking, The Actions You Can Use," Toolbox to equip susceptible young people and adults with the skills to carry out their own fact-checking and apply what they have learned in theory. The training kit includes practical exercises and hands-on training methods, providing learners with the knowledge and techniques needed to critically evaluate media content, recognize misinformation, and fake news, and take action against it. Through the use of the toolbox, learners can engage in fact-checking activities, and put into practice the critical thinking skills they have acquired. The training kit is an essential tool for promoting media literacy and active citizenship, empowering individuals to become responsible and engaged members of society and contributing to the fight against misinformation and fake news.
The MediAware Educational Digital Hub is accessible to all and focuses on two thematic objectives: to enhance educators' understanding of misinformation and fake news mechanisms and to provide trainees with a set of resources to act against misinformation and fake news. The platform aims to raise awareness and develop knowledge on different elements related to misinformation, fake news, and active citizenship. Through interactive and engaging learning modules, the platform provides a comprehensive overview of the challenges of the digital age, equipping educators and trainees with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate the complexities of the media landscape.
