Media Literacy Day – How to develop media literacy and digital skills

*Event only for student class in Docimology and Laboratory course, Prof. Giuseppa Cappuccio, SPPEFF Department, University of Palermo di Palermo

Who hasn’t heard of fake news nowadays? Or of the enormous changes to which communication is subject?

Thirty students of the MED, (Italian Media Education Association) who will participate in our Media Literacy Day, certainly have!

The Media Literacy Day will be a time to meet with the participants to discuss what has been done in this first year and a half of the project, focusing on the video game, ‘Think outside of the box’. This video game was created by the partnership to communicate the themes of the Think Twice project through a tool known to most. 

Students attending on the 20th will have the opportunity to play the video game and share their feedback that will be mentioned in the project’s final report. 

The Media Literacy day will be held on 20th May 2025 from 1.30pm to 4.30pm at Sala 2 UCI Cinemas, Forum, Via Filippo Pecoraino, 90124 Palermo PA.
