In this stage, the data collection is circulated through multimedia tools (Which is chosen depeding on the personal preferences of the faculty members) in order to saved it for the future. This process of the circulation of curated information let the university members to have their works shared and preserved.

In this stage, the items are organized and documentation and demonstration of theory take place. The faculty members provide examples of the theoretical and conceptual frameworks.

In this stage, a further exploration of the chosen items is done. There is a process of discrimination, evaluation and judging in all the categorized items. This process requires a critical eye, professional judgment, sound reasoning, and justification for either inclusion or exclusion of items. This process is essential to the growth and development of the academic field.

The categorization is the process of comparing the items collected in order to clarify their conceptualization. In this stage, a reflection about which items should be included and which should not.

Commonly, in the this stage, the university is participant of the collection of any rationale representation to further study. The collection of data for educational purposes have been developed for a long time in fields such as museum science, archaeology, and library science.

Digital curation is a process of five Cs: collect, categorize critique, conceptualize, and circulate based on the framework of new media literacy studies (Vasquez et al., 2010) and new literacies studies (Gee, 2010).

The constant growth and developing of technology have created an impact in how information can be curated. Traditionally, reaearch and teaching were curated through the use of journals and presentationn, but the advances in technology have made information easier to preserve. in addition, digital curation enrich educational practices and attract new audiences.
Yakel, Conway, Hedstrom, and Wallace (2011) argue that Digital information is all around us. More and more information is either born digital or digitally reformatted. A new generation of professionals is needed who are comfortable working in hybrid (digital and analog) environments and capable of managing media-neutral information throughout its life cycle.

Digital curation is the process of selecting, organizing and archiving digital materials from any field appropriately.
For many people, digital curation is a new idea but in fact, it is a process that educators have been doing for a long time.  For example, archeologists have served in dual roles both as “scientists and cultural resource managers” (Christenson, 1979, p. 161).
In the same way, university professors accomplish two roles: One as content collectors of their discipline and transmitters of that content to the future generations.

In this article, it is discussed how university professors can collect, categorize, criticize, conceptualize and circulate relevant content of specific fields in order to transform teaching and learning based on the necessities of the 21st century.
