Description of the tool
In the digital age, the rapid dissemination of information has fundamentally transformed how we communicate, learn, and make decisions. However, this unprecedented access to information also brings significant challenges, particularly the spread of misinformation and disinformation. These phenomena can distort public perception, influence decision-making, and affect the stability of businesses and societies. As we navigate this complex information landscape, it becomes crucial to develop the skills necessary to critically evaluate the credibility of the content we encounter and to understand the broader implications of fake news.
Throughout this material, learners will engage with theoretical concepts, practical exercises, and real-world case studies to build a robust foundation in media literacy and critical thinking. By the end of this training, learners will be better prepared to make informed decisions, safeguard their professional and personal integrity, and contribute to a more informed and resilient society.
