In OERs (Open Educational Resource); the 4 Rs are found and supported. Reuse, remix, revise, and redistribute. This perfectly describes the use of outside sources in the metalitarcy mental framework. ('Outside Source' meaning things other than a brain thought; books or pictures produced by someone else.) The 4Rs perfectly explain how Metaliteracy is to be explained. You start with an idea and individually put it through the 4R process and you get a Metaliterate idea development. The most important part of the 4R process is the 'remix' R. Even though each of the Rs have significance.
Remix is the most important because thats where collaboration of ideas happen. The collaboration of two different ideas is when you can truly uncover a truly deep idea. Then is 'redistribute' because after a person adds their perspective an idea, to allow for the metaliterate idea reach its full potential it must be passed on to be added to furthermore. The first R, reuse, establishes the fact that you understand thee idea that you are encountering with. Last, but certainly not least, revise. Revise is making sure that your idea additions are actually valid. This is crucial because with out a valid thought process the idea will no longer grow in a productive manner.
