Abstract

his companion aims to inject students' understanding of the Islamic Communication and Broadcasting Study Program in Bengkulu Province about the importance of media literacy. In addition, this assistance aims to disseminate relevant news from an Islamic perspective to participants so that they can differentiate between appropriate Islamic news and hoax news. They are expected to become media cadres or literacy ambassadors who can provide educational media to each community or group in various elements of society in Bengkulu. This type of research is CBR (Community Based Research) with the ABCD (Asset Based Community-driven Development) method. Through this method, the author seeks to explore the best potential of representative, credible, and relevant representatives with media literacy and dissemination of Islamic news. Representative students were gathered from selected people in the Islamic Communication and Broadcasting Study Program at three campuses, namely: UIN FAS Bengkulu, IAIN Curup, and the University of Muhammadiyah Bengkulu. Students deepen their understanding of the difference between journalistic work and products outside of journalistic work, news media and citizen journalism, the difference between misinformation-disinformationfake news, and the basic concepts of Islamic journalism based on the principles of journalistic fiqh and Islamic communication ethics. This dedication produces three essential things: First, there needs to be a Media Literacy course and other informal activities. Second, the increase in the media literacy index by students after mentoring. Third, as media literacy ambassadors, the participants packaged the discussion in an attractive graphic-visual form so that it could be widely disseminated to netizens.
