flag Australia has integrated media literacy into its national school curriculum, prompting the relaunch of the Newshounds program—a gamified, web-based tool for children aged 8 to 12. flag Developed by Squiz Kids with Miroma Project Factory, the program uses an animated detective dog, interactive modules, quizzes, and videos to teach students how to spot misinformation, evaluate sources, and distinguish facts from opinions. flag Designed for accessibility across devices, it includes a teacher dashboard for lesson planning and progress tracking. flag Aligned with national education standards and tested in classrooms, Newshounds has been adopted by over 4,500 schools, supporting early development of critical thinking skills in the digital age.
