Short description of our eTwinning project

Be Smart Online: Fake or Real?

This project aims at developing media literacy and promoting critical thinking in our classroom in order to help our students to become smart digital citizens.

We would like to raise our students’ awareness about the big role media play in our society.

We would like to inspire and enable them to work together and think about how we can distinguish between fake and real news.

This project also aims at connecting cultures across Europe to promote understanding and friendship among our pupils. Thanks to the eTwinning community our students will be able to live and appreciate the European multicultural experience.

It is a multidisciplinary project and teachers are going to collaborate to carry on this project with their pupils.
