Media literate Kapan

25 confirmed and 50 actually participated today.
“Media literacy” training was held in Kapan. There were no free spaces in the hall. Every confirmed participant brought his/her relative or friend with him/her. But we are happy about that. Desire to learn is the most important, finding enough space was a technical issue.
Due to the internet information becomes more and more free, and the volume of it becomes bigger and bigger. It’s easy to get lost in this quantity.

Contemporary people should have the ability to analyze and assess information and create their own informational posts. Those skills lay in the base of media literacy.
