More people are visiting websites from Facebook than from Google. Whoa!

This article gives importance to the role that media education can play in school. The example of creating a school newspaper allows you to practice how to write an article, and above all teaches you how to recognize reliable or unreliable sources. This last aspect is fundamental for children who are bombarded by lots of information and must be able to recognize how good a story is.
