The dialogue discussed topics related to media education, for which the government has allocated training courses with the aim of providing school and university students with digital media skills so that they can use the various media outlets implemented by the Jordan Media Institute.

Dr. Al-Jalabneh said, "The media education course, which is taught at the Faculty of Media at Zarqa University, aims to train students on how to access the media and produce media content that can be published through the media, in addition to training them on how to verify false and misleading news that is published through the media, especially social networking sites."

Al-Jallabneh referred to the rumors and false news that spread through social media in light of the Corona pandemic and negatively affected the psyche of society members, calling for obtaining information that is published through the media from correct and reliable sources to avoid misleading public opinion.

Al-Jalabneh indicated that this participation comes within the framework of Zarqa University's endeavor to serve the local community in various fields, indicating that the university provides various services to enable members of the local community in the city of Zarqa to increase their capabilities to find solutions to the challenges facing them to achieve development in various sectors in Zarqa.
