An empowering handbook for teachers on how to support their students to recognise fake news and false information found in the online environment

Do you check the sources of what you read online? Would you be able to recognise fake news? Information found online should be assessed and evaluated before it can be considered valuable.

This handbook, developed within the framework of the European Union-Council of Europe Joint Programme Democratic and Inclusive School Culture in Operation (DISCO), provides key information for teachers and their students on how to recognise fake news and false information found in the online environment.
