Module 1 (Inquiry-Based Media Education Method)
Establishes structured inquiry cycles for credibility checking and the justification of judgments.
Explore the project’s three educational outputs, from teacher training to classroom activities and student e-learning.
IO1 is a comprehensive, DigCompEdu-aligned teacher training programme designed to bridge the gap between digital tool usage and critical media understanding. Developed collaboratively by the project partnership, the programme equips lower and upper secondary school teachers with concrete methodologies, structured guidance, and common assessment tools to systematically teach, guide, and assess critical media, multimodal, and basic AI literacy across different subjects.
The training package is structured into six methodology-focused modules that unite media, multimodal, and AI literacy into a single pedagogical framework:
Establishes structured inquiry cycles for credibility checking and the justification of judgments.
Focuses on analysing how manipulation operates across text, images, video, and audio.
Provides classroom-safe approaches for exploring AI-generated content and understanding its limits.
Translates methods into daily, manageable lesson routines.
Offers scaffolding and targeted adaptations for low-confidence or special educational needs (SEN) learners.
Focuses on embedding methods across subjects and enabling micro-CPD (Continuous Professional Development) reuse.
Through a rigorous baseline-progress-evidence cycle—including pre/post self-assessments, rubric-assessed lesson planning, and classroom piloting—IO1 ensures that teachers move beyond passive training to observable, high-quality classroom practice. The final output is published as an Open Educational Resource (OER) to ensure large-scale reach and accessibility for educators across Europe.
English and partner-country language PDFs will be available here when supplied.
IO2 is a practical, student-centred collection of classroom-ready activities designed to bring critical media, multimodal, and AI literacy directly into secondary school lessons. Instead of treating media literacy as an isolated topic, the toolkit integrates inquiry-based analysis, multimodal interpretation, and basic AI literacy into everyday subjects, providing teachers with structured scenarios that can be readily applied in real classrooms.
The toolkit is structured into six comprehensive thematic scenarios, each consisting of five detailed sub-activities that follow a clear pedagogical progression from exploration and analysis to verification, judgment, and reflection:
Trains students to apply a rigorous four-step inquiry routine—examining source, evidence, intent, and consistency—to real-world media claims.
Explores how meaning, persuasion, and manipulation operate differently across text, images, video, and audio formats.
Focuses on basic AI literacy, guiding students to recognize AI-generated content, identify its limitations, and apply safe verification steps.
Guides learners through evidence-based decision-making to judge information reliability beyond surface-level visual appeal or popularity.
Emphasizes inclusive adaptation, ensuring that learning tasks are accessible and scaffolded for students with diverse abilities and fewer opportunities.
Consolidates critical thinking and responsible communication through practical tasks where students evaluate digital risks and communicate ethically.
Backed by shared assessment rubrics, baseline/post-assessment tasks, and inclusion scaffolds, IO2 ensures that students move from passive digital consumers to active, critical thinkers capable of evaluating information and communicating responsibly. The complete toolkit is published as an Open Educational Resource (OER) to support large-scale classroom reuse across Europe.
English and partner-country language PDFs will be available here when supplied.
IO3 is a collection of interactive, self-paced e-learning modules designed to help students independently practice, consolidate, and extend the critical media, multimodal, and AI literacy skills introduced during classroom lessons. Rather than replacing classroom instruction, these short digital units provide low-stakes environments where learners can reinforce core analytical routines and ethical communication habits at their own pace.
The e-learning package consists of six focused micro-learning units, each targeting a specific micro-competence through short inputs, applied tasks, and embedded baseline/post-checks:
Guides students through tracing information origins, evaluating evidence, assessing source trustworthiness, cross-checking sources, and making final reliability judgments.
Explores how persuasive techniques operate across text, images, video, and audio, helping students identify emotional triggers and compare persuasive impact.
Teaches learners to identify the visual and structural signs of AI outputs, understand system limitations and risks, and apply simple verification steps.
Focuses on uncovering creator intent, distinguishing fact from opinion, detecting manipulation techniques, and making evidence-based judgments.
Trains students in ethical digital communication by defining purpose and audience, avoiding misleading techniques, assessing audience impact, and self-checking before sharing.
Consolidates safe digital habits by helping students decide when to trust, question, or avoid sharing information, while reflecting on personal digital choices.
Equipped with accessibility features, visual guidance, and simplified learning pathways, IO3 ensures that students—including those with fewer opportunities or lower digital confidence—can achieve verified learning outcomes independently. All e-learning pills are published openly to ensure long-term availability and large-scale student reach beyond the partnership.
