Combatting fake news
The spread of fake news is no game, but to recent graduate Mihai Avram, a game just might be the solution. As a graduate student in the IU School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering, Avram developed a mobile app called Fakey to help combat the spread of fake news on social media. The overall goal is to teach media literacy so people will experience “a more truthful media experience.”

Unique recordings
In 1928 researchers made 195 wax cylinder recordings at Fort Yates, North Dakota, on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation. Thanks to a national effort to preserve America’s sound recording heritage, the Native American music preserved on those cylinders is now part of the National Recording Registry. IU Libraries Archives of Traditional Music safeguards the delicate cylinders, now nine decades old, and recently digitized these unique recordings that don’t exist elsewhere.

BioSim
IU researchers are developing a patent-pending tool to help elementary students understand science concepts like complex systems. BioSim is a system that includes wearable 3D indoor positioning sensors, push toys, and puppets. The tools designed to look like toy insects help introduce students to the idea of complex systems by taking the perspective of the insect. The best part? Kids have fun while exploring complex ideas.
