 In this module, you will explore ways to raise and share your voice in a post-truth world. Doing so requires being a responsible information producer who critically adapts to media environments to create and share your ideas. This involves the development of several meta-literate learner characteristics. As you strive to become a meta-literate learner, what are the specific characteristics you recognize? You may already possess some of these qualities based on your prior learning, or you may identify a few that you will want to expand as part of a lifelong journey. As part of this module, you will also be introduced to several different individuals who talk about the responsibilities of information production. As you prepare to raise and share your own voice, you will develop strategies to reclaim the promise of a connected world. The optimism we once had for a social media to connect us all in online communities has been replaced by a post-truth reality that misleads and divides us. Should we disconnect from these online spaces and delete our social media accounts or find ways to take ownership for the communities we create, moderate and share? We have many options for how we should respond to the post-truth circumstances and as this MOOC has shown, the issues are complex and do not necessarily have easy answers. But one way forward is to take responsibility for the information we create through all of our connected communities. As you develop as a meta-literate learner, you will gain several interrelated characteristics that will support you in contributing meaningful content while raising and sharing your own voice. Collectively, all of these interrelated characteristics define the meta-literate learner. Think about the specific qualities you may already possess and those that may need further development. How might you put these key themes into practice as you follow your own path as an empowered meta-literate learner? As the current situation has shown, a post-truth reality reveals how people gravitate to their own like-minded communities to confirm their own beliefs. These challenges have emerged as a result of proprietary social media platforms that were developed to bring people together and turn a profit. In developing the next generation of social systems, we all need to be careful about the proprietary and political interests that take advantage of users who are interested in participating online. Doing so will challenge the false and unreliable information that is created and shared in these spaces. As we move beyond the post-truth world, we need to reimagine learning communities in which active producers take responsibility for advancing transparency, collaboration, and trust.
