During the seminars, UEFers were always proactive to deepen and receive knowledge. Through presentation exercises on topics such as: the global fight against fake news, gender stereotypes in the media, artificial intelligence and fake news, and so on, they were able to immediately put the theories they have just learned into practice. Their presentations were also given a thumbs up from the jury, represented by Mr. Phan Van Tu - Head of Print Journalism Major, Faculty of Journalism and Communication, HCMC University of Social Sciences and Humanities.

At the end of the course, many students discussed the transformation, the inspiration from the class, and the beginning journey of UEF young people to become more responsible readers.
