Get to know how to recognize fake news and how to work with social media Deep working with digital competence (movie editing, work with the camera, a program using, work with photoshop) Research COVID-19 situation, as a good example of information source Make a social movie about information influence on society Development of 8 key competences. Partnership building for future projects Capacity building We think that youth can change the minds of society by example, and by explaining how SM works, how to use critical thinking, whom we can trust, and how to identify fake news. Our generation grew up with the first phones, and we saw how the internet was developing. We remember the first social websites (one.lv), we remember the first amazing games (Zelda) , we see how the internet is developing and try to use new and new opportunities that we get. But now we are attacked by information. Everywhere in social-media people just put videos with cats or dogs, and we watch it, because it's cute but there is no sense for us, it starts to be a waste of our time. We waste a lot of time on things that will never be helpful for us. That's why we decided to write this project, to decide with partners how we can help ourselves. Where is the limit, how can we protect ourselves? The first step in our project will be research about information, the internet, social media, how it influences us, just numbers and examples. After that, we need to work on our information bubble, get to know how to protect ourselves from cybercrime, how to recognize fake news, how to behave in social media, talk about protection of personal data, and copyrights in social media. The third part of our YE was the action part. We already got a lot of information, we had a lot of discussions, and in the end, we created our final product. And made an Event for local youth to spread awareness about Information influence in our lives.
