“Crack the code!” Educational tools to address conspiracy theories in the school world

“Crack the code!” is a project that aims to give children and young people in schools (focus 7-9 years) tools for navigating an increasingly complex information landscape characterized by social media and increasing knowledge resistance. Educators should be able to easily use the project’s results to work with the topic in school. Students should be given the prerequisites to crack the code behind conspiracy theory stories that the world is ruled by evil forces that are out to manipulate us.
