Abstract

Propaganda represents the communication of information or ideas aimed to influence the audience's view and position on subjects. Forms of propaganda have permeated society for centuries and have evolved to become a common tool of warfare. Through the study of propagandistic posters from the two World Wars-era in the proposed project, students assess the powers of words and images in communication and learn to evaluate the messages they encounter, particularly when those messages urge action. The project is designed as a smart learning environment with the use of open educational resources that focuses on the strengths of all types of learners and the improvement of their weaknesses by integrating learner-centered theories and multiple intelligences and learning styles strategies with various combinations and by enhancing the efforts for self-discovery. This aims to promote students' cognitive engagement, which enables them to immerse themselves in in-depth reflective learning processes that are situated in realistic problem-solving tasks.
