Abstract | A 2018 study conducted by the independent, non-profit organization The Commission on Fake News and The Teaching of Critical Literacy Skills reported that only 2% of children have the literacy skills they need to determine if a news story is real or fake. Over 50% of the teachers in the study believe that current curriculum does not equip children with the literacy skills they need to identify fake news. The author emphasizes that giving students the tools to be critical of information sources is an absolutely necessary competence that needs to be integrated into schools. NUSHU is a novel idea for building children's media literacy, turning global news into an exciting adventure for children. NUSHU uses comics and augmented reality to engage children in a series of adventures about global current issues while giving them an active role in the information-gathering process. NUSHU is also a tool the teacher can use to work on informational competencies, such as searching for information, verifying informational sources, debating, and developing critical thinking. Through NUSHU, children learn how to sort through the vast amount of information available in the world and develop critical thinking skills while taking part in a series of fascinating adventures.
