ABSTRACT

This chapter focuses on the specificity of Projects YouCheck! and YouVerify!, within a transliteracy framework and its attendant theory of change. Both projects encapsulate the trend to promote media and information literacy (MIL) as a full-fledged digital transliteracy, with a special focus on digital visual literacy, empowered by smart tools such as the plug-in InVID-WeVerify. The rationale behind each project and their main results sheds light on the effectiveness of MIL and its potential for transformative change.
