Abstract
-
Amid growing concerns over digital misinformation and the evolving role of education in fostering media resilience, this study explores the effects of an online training program designed to enhance 159 Vietnamese K–12 teachers’ competencies in Media and Information Literacy. The program consisted of interactive modules covering MIL concepts, fact-checking strategies, digital ethics, and classroom integration techniques, delivered over six weeks. Participants engaged in collaborative tasks, practice-based reflection, and peer feedback. Results indicate significant gains in MIL knowledge, teaching self-efficacy, and classroom implementation among trained teachers, with the strongest improvements observed in their confidence to address misinformation and facilitate critical digital engagement. Effectiveness was amplified by sustained participation, prior digital experience, and urban school contexts. By equipping teachers with both conceptual and practical MIL tools, the program positioned them as informed digital mentors, capable of cultivating students’ critical media use. The findings underscore the importance of structured, context-sensitive training in fostering resilient digital citizenship in rapidly evolving educational landscapes.
