Digital learning gap leaves European students at risk of online 'Infodemic', new OECD PISA report reveals Media Links New pan-European digital education initiative from Vodafone’s Foundations to empower students in critical use of digital technologies. Paris / London – 4 May 2021 - European students are struggling to manage the flood of information provided by internet and digital services, according to a new OECD PISA-report ‘ 21st Century Readers: Developing literacy skills in a digital world’, co-funded by Vodafone Germany Foundation and released today. Against the backdrop of a COVID-19 ‘Infodemic’ - a term coined by the World Health Organization to describe the flood of information disseminated about the health crisis – The report found that only half (54%) of European students are taught to recognise if online information is biased, and less than 1 in 10 can successfully distinguish fact from opinions.
