Creative Writing of Disinformation Narratives

Abstract

The ubiquity of new portable devices with internet access and recent events such as the global pandemic caused by COVID-19 and the Russian invasion of Ukraine has highlighted the importance of media and information literacy. In parallel, developing tools based on artificial intelligence will allow the developing of sophisticated disinformative content (deepfakes). This media context demands new and refined informational competences to identify and verify information. This research presents a proposal to develop media and information literacy using AI tools to create audiovisual content. Strategies such as flipped classrooms, thematic debates, and playful activities are used. A selection of evaluation instruments is presented, which, through a pre-and post-experimental design, will allow the evaluation of this proposal and the learning developed by the students.
