Enhancing Metacognitive Awareness & Metaliteracy Skills Towards Becoming a Self-Determined Researcher

January 25, 2024 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM (EST)

Description

Metacognition is essentially the critical self-reflection or thinking about one’s own thinking. Metacognition is one of the domains of metaliteracy. Metaliteracy is a requirement for successful research. It promotes critical thinking and collaboration in a connected world, providing a comprehensive framework to effectively participate in social media and online communities. It is a unified construct that supports the acquisition, production, and sharing of knowledge in collaborative online communities. Metaliteracy challenges traditional skills-based approaches and expands on traditional information literacy. This allows to consider the related literacy types and incorporating emerging technologies. Standard definitions of information literacy are insufficient for the revolutionary social technologies as well as research trend in our changing world.
