Webwise is currently recruiting schools to take part in the EduMediaTest Programme, which will allow students to complete an online questionnaire to test their knowledge and abilities to identify disinformation, detect hidden interests in sources, spot stereotypes, and to behave responsibly when it comes to copyright.

 

Audiovisual media regulators and public institutions in seven European countries have developed this interactive tool, EduMediaTest, to evaluate and improve media education for European pupils aged 14 to 18 thanks to the partial funding received from the European Commission under the Media Literacy for All programme.

On completion of the EduMedia Test all participating schools will be provided with results and free education materials based on the results of the evaluation to support media literacy education in the classroom.
