Wise Goose
Fact-checked News Campaign with an App
PROJECT BACKGROUND
86% of Internet users admitted that they have been duped by fake news shown in social network at least once. Facebook is the most frequently blamed source according to a global survey. Why don’t we teach people to combat fake news? Wise Goose is an app for the fact-checked news campaign. People can learn how to fact-check and avoid fake news by using the app. Users can upgrade their Wise Goose levels when they follow the fact-checking guide and play fact-checking quizzes. Also, they can chat with friends on the app to broaden their news knowledge with one another.
PROJECT CONCEPT
Nowadays, many netizens are misled by fake news and do not know how to combat it. A fact-checked news campaign is therefore organised to let users work together via the Wise Goose app to fact-check news reports. The characters of Wise Goose can draw users‘ attention and to arouse their interest to use the app and enhance their fact-checking knowledge.
