Tell me what was happening

Media literacy & critical thinking Are we surrounded by lies?!

Breaking news!

During this activity we found out more about cases of fake news spread in different countries from this project. Although the cases were different there was something in common in all of them - the invisible power of fake news that affects our society.

Case of Greece: Turkey is invading Greece, again. Because of the long history with Turkey, it is an easy spreadable fake new in Greece but the chaos and fear it may cause in Greece is a serious issue! Here also was important to think critical!

Case of Croatia: Rumour about football player's affair with a president. This case showed us how important it is to check the information before spreading it further because bad rumours might seriously affect others lives.

Case of Romania: War in Ukraine affects Romania! It is an easy concept how to manipulate people and make them chaos because of the fear. This case helped us to understand how important it is to trust only credible news sources to prevent each of us from unnecessary stress. Case of Italy: Is pizza invented in Romania? Fun case abut the misunderstandings about the invention of pizza actually makes us to think - check your facts before sharing information with others!

Case of Bulgaria: Alien has been found! Case seems funny but actually it teaches us how important is to educate people about critical thinking that would've helped to prevent this kind of information from spreading.
