HIDDEN INFLUENCE: A WORKSHOP ON PROPAGANDA
Description
Every day students are faced with different forms of propaganda. However, it is nothing new. Governments have used this type of covert action to influence events both at home and abroad. Can your students identify the tools and techniques used to create successful propaganda campaigns?
