Carnegie Mellon University (Carnegie Mellon University Libraries)

Carnegie Mellon University will develop the Project on Open and Evolving Metaliterature, a dynamic, evolving, and sustainable collection of open educational resources to enhance algorithm, data, and media literacy for learners of high school age and above. This project is designed for a range of instructor and learner audiences interested in practical, peer-reviewed open educational resources designed to improve information literacy levels and empower digital citizens. The project focuses on three areas: algorithm, artificial intelligence (AI), and software literacies; data, computational, and analytical literacies, and media, visual, and information literacies. It builds upon the work of initiatives such as the Algorithm & Data Literacy Project—UNESCO’s work defining AI and data competency frameworks—the White House’s Blueprint for an AI Bill of Rights, the Association of College & Research Libraries’ (ACRL) Framework for Information Literacy, and the 2021 ACRL Framework for Visual Literacy in Higher Education.
