Over five days, they combined warm-up activities with hands-on game play,&nbsp;reflecting on&nbsp;the dangers of misinformation in today\u2019s digital world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The feedback was clear: the game was easy to&nbsp;use&nbsp;and the instructions simple to follow. Many appreciated its visuals and saw its potential to make people think critically.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00ab\u00a0The best part was that I learned how to recognize bias.
