There is a need to support social care workers in developing media literacy skills as society becomes more digital. The Mediatrain project developed a training method for social care workers in special youth care in Flanders. An evaluation found that the training increased participants' media literacy skills and attitudes by 20%, though it did not significantly change their awareness. It also strengthened the relationship between media literacy skills and comfort with internet use. The project helped introduce protocols and agreements around internet activities in Flemish special youth care organizations.

Social care work is digitalizing

Media literacy (media wisdom) Media literacy is the set of knowledge, skills and attitudes that citizens are aware of to live with a critical attitude in a complex, changing and mediatized world. It is the capacity for an active and creative use of media that focuses on social participation in the public sphere. Media literacy is not just about practical ICT skills such as reading and smooth handling or creative use of different media, but also about media awareness in practice, understanding the mechanisms of commercial communications and media industries, handling information with a critical mind, strategic skills and the responsible and safe use of media.
