Our MOOC
As we saw in the previous slide the main objective of this MOOC course is to train educators and adult education volunteers on an innovative methodology to teach ICT and ML competences while promoting critical thinking, in order to tackle disinformation.
On this page, you will have a chance to navigate the contents of the MOOC, which expands on the Dialogic Media Literacy methodology in which professionals will be trained that was both evidence-based and co-created with vulnerable adults, with whom these professionals are and will be working.
Through this page you will also have access to the full Introductory Unit which will, not only get you motivated to follow the rest of the course, but will also guide you into how to use our Moodle platform!
