Edukacja humanistyczna w erze dezinformacji

Abstract

The author of the article convinces in the context of humanistic education, thinking about disinformation, manipulation and propaganda is a very important challenge. The difficulty in distinguishing information and opinion can have negative consequences for civic and democratic attitudes. Instead of collecting and analysing the facts that make up a given problem and verifying their credibility, modern man is more willing to use ready-made and emotional assessments that impose the only correct meaning. This is facilitated by the expansion of social media and the ease with which you can comment on any topic. Therefore, the article presents several ways of school reaction to this problem: it is recommended to use didactic ideas that have long been present in Polish didactics, as well as new ones, consisting in the use of TV series or podcasts in Polish language lessons. It's about saving the ability to interpret reality from annihilation.
