Objectives:
1.Empower students through Gamified Media Literacy Education
We aim to empower students aged 12-25 with critical thinking, digital literacy, and media analysis skills by offering interactive and immersive learning experiences through gamified news storytelling and the updating of the existing authoring tool developed as part of the NewsArcade project to reflect educational needs.
2.Offer teachers new tools and methods
Drawing from the success of the NewsArcade project, our proposal aims to scale up best practices in media literacy education by developing new educational formats and empowering educators in delivering effective media literacy instruction by providing them with innovative tools and resources for gamified news storytelling.
3.Foster European Collaboration among media and education sectors
Through a cross-border collaborative effort of the participating organisations from Cyprus, Denmark, Portugal, Germany, and France and beyond through our associated partners and stakeholder engagement with educational institutions, media experts etc. (e.g., WAN-IFRA, NISV, SDU, EDMO regional hubs), we aim to share knowledge and exchange best practices between different regions of Europe, contributing to a more cohesive and interconnected media literacy landscape.
