: My doctoral research consists in developing a critical inquiry method in media education, that is, a method that encourages pupils to ask relevant questions about digital media and technology. In this context, I am developing an educational program based on the practice of design fiction, a design practice that uses narrative structures to explore possible futures for technologies. Activities include, among others, the development of fictional prototypes, the shooting and editing of short videos presenting pupils' objects, press conferences in the format of role-playing and the production of science fiction comics. In addition to the development of the program, I am building an evaluation grid that assesses pupils’ critical inquiry competence. I use pupils’ questions that I have collected during pre- and post-tests, and I analyse them according to their content areas and degree of “criticality”.
