Integrated Metaliterate Learner Figure

This integrated figure pulls together three of the four core components of metaliteracy: the learning domains, the learner characteristics and the learner roles. Being able to see these key elements linked together in one graphic highlights the interrelationships among them. Consider the rings of the diagram as able to spin, so that the combinations of domains, roles and characteristics are changeable, as they are in real life. These essential elements are reinforced by the goals and learning objectives that constitute the fourth component of the metaliteracy framework.

Click on the elements in the figure for guiding questions connected to each learning domain, characteristic, and learner role (or download the Integrated Metaliterate Learner Figure with Guiding Questions as a PDF).
