Objectives

With this project, we wanted to improve the development of young people's media literacy, critical thinking, and presentation skills. Young people are very aware of what is happening in social media in general, but also they need to know and learn how to use social media and other digital tools. Also, how to express yourself and your opinions without offending, hurting anyone or promoting violence and exclusion. Therefore, by improving the knowledge and skills of youngsters to create content, recognizing fake news we also help youngsters to improve their lives and also understand the reality. The objectives of our project were to: improve young people’s quality of life and demonstrate real life of media literacy in general; improve EU's goals and guidelines for a united, inclusive Europe by adopting individuality of others and by cooperating; improve and develop skills on how to express one's opinion and personal attitudes in real life and on social media without offending others; improve young people's skills and share knowledge on how to create good and high-quality social media content and understand its impact on others; improve the critical thinking of young people, which would make them understand the importance and truthfulness of the news, without them spreading false news and becoming the authors of such news.
