Estudi de la UE: Bretxes d'Alfabetització Digital Entre els Joves de 14 anys

16 des. 2024

Un estudi de la Comissió Europea revela que el 43% dels estudiants de 14 anys de tota la UE no tenen competències digitals bàsiques. Els estudiants d'entorns socioeconòmics més alts superen constantment els seus companys, subratllant la influència dels nivells d'educació dels pares i dels recursos de la llar. En particular, les noies superen els nens en un 7,9% de mitjana, però les dones només constitueixen el 20% dels especialistes en TIC a la UE. ( Comissió Europea, Espai Europeu d'Educació)

Meta Cuts Fact-Checking: Why Digital Literacy Matters

In January 2025, Meta Platforms announced the discontinuation of its third-party fact-checking program on Facebook and Instagram, opting instead for a user-driven "Community Notes" system similar to that of X (formerly Twitter). This shift has raised concerns among experts and users about the potential increase in misinformation and hate speech on these platforms. Critics argue that relying on user-generated content moderation may be less effective than professional fact-checking, potentially exacerbating the spread of false information. As online environments evolve, it becomes more important than ever to teach our children about fake news, hoaxes, safe internet use, and netiquette.
