During this session, you will work online, following a video that will alternatively teach you about different aspects of Media Literacy, and giving you tests to see whether you understood the issue at hand.

Remember to write down the important information (definitions, vocabulary...) while working, in order to start memorizing.
- take notes
- draw a mindmap if you prefer


Here’s a site to check your news and have clear definitions of each type of publication. https://uscupstate.libguides.com/ne...


Let’s debate a little...
- If someone unknowingly spreads a falsehood, do they have the same responsibility as someone who purposedly spreads it ? Why ?
- Why should we care about misinformation ?

*************************************************************

Follow-up work :

Homework : Learn the important vocabulary thanks to the online quizlet list your teacher prepared for you. There are different types of exercise, such as
- CARDS : look through the list with the equivalent or definition attached to each card
- LEARN mode : match the word and its defintion/equivalent
- WRITE : the defintion or equivalent is given, you only have to write the corresponding word
- DICTATION : a voice gives a word or expression, you write it down (yes, it’s that simple, and the defintion or equivalent is even mentioned at the bottom, to help you !)
- TEST : the software randomly selects some of the elements to test your global knowledge
- ASSOCIATE : like in a memory game, you match the word and its defnition or equivalent
- GRAVITY : type the right word before the asteroids hit Planet earth... Supposed to test your quickness of mind... and skills at typing !
- The LIVE mode can only be done if several participants play together, easier to do it in class.
