Thanks to a recommendation from Sue Thomas we are exploring the social media site Scoop.it. We now have a curated space on the topic of Metaliteracy. This is a visually interesting and dynamic site that allows us to scoop postings related to metaliteracy, transliteracy, open learning, OERs, and MOOCs. Feel free to follow the scoop.it page on metaliteracy and offer suggestions.

3T’s Presentation: Metaliteracy in Practice
Last week’s 3T’s 2013 Conference at Empire State College was an inspiration for everyone who attended. Sue Thomas was outstanding and provided us with an engaging and compelling keynote address. In the afternoon session Trudi Jacobson, Tom Mackey, and Greg Bobish presented on metaliteracy with a presentation entitled “Metaliteracy in Practice: Metaliteracy sounds great but how do I teach it?” This presentation includes reference to our article on this topic Reframing Information Literacy as a Metaliteracy as well as a preview of the book manuscript currently under development Metaliteracy for the Open Age of Social Media for ALA Books.
