Digital Meal is a web-based learning and teaching tool. The goal of the overarching Digital Meal project is to provide teachers with materials and an interactive tool to discuss and foster the media literacy of their students.
The core idea of Digital Meal is to foster media literacy by
- instructing students how they can request and download the data digital platforms such as Google/YouTube/Instagram/etc. have stored about them (e.g., through the Google takeout page),
- provide them an application to generate personalized usage reports based on the data they have requested from a platform,
- and providing learning and teaching material to guide (self-)reflections and discussions of personal media use but also media use in general.
Digital Meal is a Python/Django application. It is developed to be used in tandem with django-ddm, a web-application to collect data donations and enrich them with questionnaire responses.
Currently, this repository is developed for internal use and is not yet optimized to be easily applicable to other projects/use cases.
Digital Meal is a project developed by the Media Use and Effects division of the University of Zurich and supported by Citizen Science Zürich.
