Metaliteracy challenges us to think about how the presentation of information in multiple formats impacts our understanding of the content conveyed. Searching for information in print and text formats has given way to navigating and interacting with a variety of sources in social media, social networking, and multimedia. Today’s presentation of information includes open resources and user-generated information via blogs, microblogs, and snippets of information in status updates and user reviews. The authority of information in these spaces is not always easily understood and requires a critical perspective that makes sense out of so many sources, without discounting the value of multiple perspectives now available.
