MIC-MAC is a project that enhances the media and information literacy skills of educators who work with vulnerable learners. It helps educators to apply competences in real teaching practice that reflects the ‘lived experience’ of vulnerable learners. Using ‘design thinking’ to develop the programme, it combines micro-learning, podcasting and game-based learning to simulate the challenges educators will face. Subsequently, this improves the media literacy skills of their learners and contributes to a more resilient fact-based information ecosystem.
