Tools/strategies to combat disinfo in person?
Hello all, I received a request for help from some youth development educators looking for ways to combat mis and disinformation (especially health and/or science misinformation) in person. *"Our audience is community-based educators who work in the fields of nutrition, agriculture, environment, and youth development. These educators often feel ill-equipped to respond to misinformation in person whether in one-on-one or classroom settings in ways that don't escalate into unproductive arguments."* Is there any research on this? Any resources or tools that you are aware of? Thank you! Irene Irene V.

Dear Irene, Lie Detectors teaches media literacy for free in schools in Europe and have a one-hour webinar that aims to give teachers the tools necessary to address fake news, and to integrate news literacy and source verification into classroom conversations. For teachers/educators working with pupils aged approx 10-16. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V01HqmNOUbY&feature=youtu.be FirstDraftNews is an US based organisation and have online training materials and tools available but this is mostly for journalists but I've found the "information disorder" and "verification" sections very informative. https://firstdraftnews.org/training/information-disorder/ Sometimes they also offer courses. I remember coming across the News Literacy Playbook, but it's targeted for an American audience, so I didn't look at it in detail as I'm based in Europe. http://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/NewsLiteracyPlaybook-1.pdf It includes their report but also an introduction to "Checkology", I'm not familiar about the success-rate or quality of this, but I do know that they provide teachers assistance on this topic, and they have their handbook published on their website, which might be a good start for looking into the issue.
