Turn off the TV - think with your head! ft. Gymnasium "Mile Arsenijević - Bandera", Majdanpek (2019)

In times when we are surrounded by misinformation, half-information, fake news and various types of propaganda in the public / media space, it is important to educate citizens about the dangers that such content brings with it. With this in mind, young people from the Majdanpek high school conducted a survey on how much time their fellow citizens spend in front of the TV, how they get information about events in the city, what content they most often follow, whether they check the information served to them via media and how much they trust them. The results were then presented at the lecture, and part of it was used as the content of the play, which they realized later.

In order to educate citizens about media abuse, fake news, as well as how they can search for the right information, promotional material was prepared and distributed. 

The students chose a dramatic form as a way of presentation, ie. performance, as the most effective (and most entertaining) method for distracting and sending your message. After the play, lectures and workshops on media manipulations were realized.
