Aprašymas

This book investigates how media literacy can be used to help people understand, identify, and respond to online misinformation.

Drawing on a 3-year research study that examined the everyday media experiences and abilities of more than 4,400 adults, the book presents an in-depth look at how individuals experience and interpret misinformation across a range of topics. It argues that we need to learn to "live with" misinformation, and outlines the skills, knowledge and critical thinking required for people to make informed decisions about their media use. The book uniquely integrates contemporary challenges such as generative AI and long-standing concerns about information integrity, presenting both the problem and actionable educational responses.

Living with Misinformation: A Media Literacy Approach is essential reading for scholars and students in media, education, and communication studies, as well as educators, librarians, journalists, parents, and community workers seeking to foster media literacy in varied populations. Its global relevance is reinforced by comparative insights from international studies, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to address the many challenges associated with misinformation.
