Studies</a> is delighted to present <a
href="https://akademie.dw.de/hype-literacy/"
moz-do-not-send="true"><em>The Hype Literacy Toolkit</em></a>,
a free, publicly available online course created in
cooperation with <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://akademie.dw.com/en/the-hype-literacy-toolkit-for-journalists/a-76716043">Deutsche
Welle Akademie</a>, which introduces “the study of hype as
an urgent force that shapes technological development,
economics, politics, and journalism”.</p>
<p>Journalists, students, academics, policymakers can learn
about how tech hype transforms society. The aim is to
recognize hype, unmask its playbook and to understand how to
talk and research better about emerging technologies like
AI, Quantum or Nanotech and their impact on the world.</p>
<p>The course was presented at the <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.journalismfestival.com/programme/2026/hype-literacy-reporting-on-ai-beyond-the-buzz">International
Journalist Festival in Perugia</a> last week. </p>
<p>Warmly,</p>
<p>Jascha Bareis in the name of the hypestudies group</p>
