This is an official ODERSA website. Here’s how you know
The official domain

The address of this site ends in odersa.org. Every service the association runs sits on a subdomain of odersa.org and nowhere else. If the address in your browser’s address bar does not end in odersa.org, this site is not ours.

Free, and no account

Everything is open straight away. No sign-up, no account, no password, no subscription, no advertising. Nothing is held back for those who pay, because there is nothing to pay for.

No data collected

This site does not follow you: no tracker, no tracking cookie, no measurement tool built into these pages, and nothing measured on your device. Our host counts requests in aggregate, as any server that answers does: a total, never a profile. You do not have to take our word for it: open your browser’s developer tools, go to the Network tab, and reload the page. You will see the full list of what the site asks for. Everything comes from odersa.org, nothing goes anywhere else.

Free to reuse

The content is published under the CC BY 4.0 licence. You may copy it, translate it, print it and pass it on, for your classes as much as for the people around you, on one condition only: credit ODERSA.

Credits & sources

A site that keeps asking “who is speaking?” owes you the answer about itself. Here is who made what, image by image, typeface by typeface, idea by idea.

Frameworks behind the 10 reflexes

The reflexes condense public, documented media-literacy methods, notably: Mike Caulfield's SIFT method (“Four Moves”); the resources of CLEMI (the French national centre for media and information literacy) on verifying sources, images and information; and the cross-checking approaches documented by francophone media-education organisations. The training cases themselves are original, fictional creations.

Typefaces (embedded, SIL OFL licence)

Source Serif 4 (headings) and Public Sans (text, labels, navigation), the two families of the ODERSA design system. Public Sans is the typeface of the United States federal design system (USWDS): the kinship is deliberate, it is the same public-service family. The files are served from this site: no external font service is called.
