BRIDGE Main Challenge: A.7. Digital ecosystem, disinformation and the need for media literacy and critical thinking
Misinformation and digital illiteracy in Europe affects not only education but also democracy and social cohesion. Although there are varying levels of responses among EU countries, depending on the degree of access to digital technology and infrastructure, the level of training that teachers receive and the extent to which media education is incorporated into school and Curriculum, there is still a high percentage of educators and learners who lack the necessary skills to properly access, evaluate, and create content in digital environments.
The Think Twice project aims to enhance teachers’ and students’ digital and media literacy because the spread of misinformation and disinformation endangers democracy, trust in public institutions and high-quality education. Developing digital and media literacy is crucial for the protection of democratic values and promoting social inclusion in changing digital environments.
Think Twice is an Erasmus+ funded project which aims to strengthen the competences of both educators and learners in different levels (primary, secondary, adult, HEI) in the field of digital literacy and tackling disinformation.
Online spreading of false information, which often is furthered by social media and other online platforms, shows that young people and adults are not able to sufficiently make a difference between reliable information and misleading information, to recognize manipulation and to act responsibly online. Many students and teachers lack confidence in dealing with misinformation or using critical digital practices.
The project points out to the issue of spreading misinformation/disinformation which is an actual threat to the EU democracy. Digital Illiteracy, which undermines critical thinking, enhances structural inequalities created by digital divides between regions, social classes, ages and levels of education.
Think Twice responds to A7 Challenge by pointing out to responsible and ethical use of digital tools and media and raising awareness against misinformation and spreading of misleading information online. By building educators' and students' collective capacity to challenge misinformation and disinformation and to promote values of democracy in education, the project reinforces digital literacy and active citizenship among adults, children and youth.
The Think Twice project features 12 interactive media literacy workshops for critical use of media information in different settings of education (primary school, secondary school, adults, pre-service teachers), including corresponding resources for the respective target groups of teachers and students. The Think Twice concepts are based on EU-policies and the UNESCO framework for Media and Information Literacy (MIL).
