Dear Irene,

Lie Detectors teaches media literacy for free in schools in Europe and have
a one-hour webinar that aims to give teachers the tools necessary to
address fake news, and to integrate news literacy and source verification
into classroom conversations. For teachers/educators working with pupils
aged approx 10-16.

FirstDraftNews is an US based organisation and have online training
materials and tools available but this is mostly for journalists but I've
found the "information disorder" and "verification" sections very
informative.
https://firstdraftnews.org/training/information-disorder/
Sometimes they also offer courses.

I remember coming across the News Literacy Playbook, but it's targeted for
an American audience, so I didn't look at it in detail as I'm based in
Europe.
http://newslit.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/NewsLiteracyPlaybook-1.pdf
It includes their report but also an introduction to "Checkology", I'm not
familiar about the success-rate or quality of this, but I do know that they
provide teachers assistance on this topic, and they have their handbook
published on their website, which might be a good start for looking into
the issue.

Best wishes,
