Be Media Smart with Media Literacy Ireland
Be Media Smart with Media Literacy Ireland
Be Media Smart at Cabra Library on Wednesday 9th April at 6.30pm!
Media, especially digital media, is central to our daily lives and the technology behind it is changing all the time. Knowing how to use, understand and evaluate media is essential if we want to be able to participate fully in society, and make informed decisions based on accurate and reliable information – whether those decisions relate to health, politics, economics or any other aspect of life.
During this talk in Cabra Library, Martina Chapman, National Coordinator of Media Literacy Ireland, will highlight the important role that media has in our lives and give tips and advice on how to manage our relationship with media. Martina will offer tips and guidance on topics such as AI, verifying information and protecting our data, as well as avoiding digital pitfalls like scams and misinformation.
Martina Chapman is an independent consultant in Media and Information Literacy. She is the National Coordinator of Media Literacy Ireland and the Be Media Smart campaign on behalf of Coimisiún na Meán.
