ASPBAE has reported on an Indonesian workshop addressing the phenomenon of fake news and enhancing digital literacies to tackle the challenge.
“The workshop was designed to actively and creatively engage the participants in the sessions. Some of the issues covered were social media’s responsibility towards protecting users from fake news, the “post-truth” era, why and how fake news originated and is spread, the impact it has on people and communities, how to recognise it, and how to counter its growing influence.
