In recent years, several trends can be seen in the media environment: a massive expansion of the range of information sources, fragmentation of the audience, a paradigm shift in access to and search for information, and the rise of so-called alternative media. Although alternative media is not a new trend, the emergence of social networks, the ease of creating, disseminating and sharing media content, together with factors such as the polarisation of society and the crisis of trust in institutions, are contributing to the changing landscape of alternative media. The literature review shows the fluctuation of meaning, the instability of the term. In scholarly texts we find references to alternative media as community media, radical media, critical media, with the common denominator being the presentation of topics and opinions that are not sufficiently presented in the traditional media. In the Slovak media environment, alternative media are mostly perceived as those through which disinformation, conspiracies and hate speech are spread. The study presents the results of qualitative research focused on journalism students and their attitudes towards alternative media. The aim was to find out how they perceive alternative media in relation to traditional media and the spread of misinformation. The research is based on in-depth interviews with eight first-year students of the journalism study programme. The interviews show that the perception of alternative media is not uniform. On the one hand, they are perceived as a space for opinions that do not get attention in the mainstream media, on the other hand, they are also perceived as disseminators of misinformation. Despite the impossibility of generalisation, it is interesting to note that the respondents have no experience of systematic media education addressing verifying information and media credibility.

This paper outlines research results on the media and information literacy (MIL) skills of elementary school teachers and expert associates in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BaH). The aim of the paper is to draw attention to the necessity of educating primary school teaching staff about MIL so that they would be able to apply the acquired knowledge and skills in the teaching process. During the training of two groups (N = 56) of the Republic of Srpska (BaH) primary school teachers and expert associates from the field of media and information literacy, was applied the UNESCO MIL curriculum and competency framework for teachers. We used an online survey method to collect data about the level of knowledge and skills of educators, prior to and following the MIL training. The results showed that the educators had acquired a high level of knowledge on media and information literacy following the training, but also indicated the need for additional training to strengthen the skills of teachers and expert associates in specific MIL components.
