How can we spot fake news, deepfakes, and manipulated content? And how can we approach information critically and thoughtfully in the age of AI?

The book “Medienkompetenz im KI-Zeitalter für Studium und Wissenschaft” by Rödiger Voss offers an introduction to the topic and is aimed at students of all disciplines who wish to navigate digital information environments with greater confidence. In a practical and accessible manner, it demonstrates how to critically evaluate media content, verify sources, and identify disinformation. Topics such as deepfakes, science washing, and ethical issues surrounding AI are just as much a focus as the development of reflective media literacy for students and academia.

Please note: This book is currently only available in German.
