Talk:Play the villain – learn to fight disinformation with news literacy – WS 12 2019
Conf call 09 April 2019
Present: Elena, Rainer, Aslak, Yrjo, Giacomo, Olivier.
We went through the addition of resources in the wiki, and rapidly started talking about the title proposals for the workshop.
Olivier rightfully pointed out that the title needed to be gender neutral:"villain" rather than "guy". Here is the draft title: “Be the villain: create disinformation and exploit the lack of news literacy!”
Yrjo reminded us all to always keep in mind that the workshop feeds into Plenary 7.
The proposed teaser was too long: here is the shorter version:
“Live and remote audience play a game posing as the villain that creates disinformation and mine people’s trust by polluting the information ecosystem. Key participants will help find the way towards a healthy relation with the news”
Aslak and Giacomo made very valid "key participant" proposals that we are now exploring/pursuing, after securing the participation of game creator Ruurd Oosterwoudh. Elena will contact Claire Wardle from First Draft News.
Proposals for key participants can be submitted in the Gdoc here https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MikVuJ7_qBCTNpV5DY2xJVMtLinn8tlHsIP8YJI5vW8/edit
Only until 15 April to make final decisions on Title and Teaser!
