METACOGNITIVE
INSTRUCTION
Developing metacognitive thinking in learners
requires the teacher's creativity. Using metacognitive
methods improves how students learn. Studies have
shown that metacognitive teaching approaches
improve learners' abilities to transfer their skills in
learning new tasks in new situations (Palinscar &
Brown, 1984; Schoenfeld, 1991).
PRINCIPLES OF METACOGNITIVE
INSTRUCTION
• implement metacognitive instruction in the content matter to ensure
interaction.
• Learners should be informed about the benefit of applying
metacognitive skills in order to make them exert the initial extra
effort.
• and continuous education to ensure the simple and consistent set up
of metacognitive activity.
METACOGNITIVE
TEACHING STRATEGIES
Graphic Organizers
are visual illustrations displaying the
relationships between for ideas,
or concepts. Through the visual
displays, learners are guided in their
thinkin, needed information.
Think Aloud
helps learners to think aloud about
their thinking as they undertake a
task. The learne report their
thoughts while they do it.
Error Analysis
A "systematic approach for using
feedback metacognitively to improve
one's future performance” (Hopeman,
2002). Asking the learners where they
are correct and wrong provides avenues
for them to evaluate their thinking.
Wrapper
An activity that fosters learners'
metacognition before, during, and
after a class. In a reading class,
before the selection is read, the
teacher asks about the theme of the
selection based on the story title.
Peer Mentoring
Peer mentoring is a proven
metacognitive strategy as many
learners learn best when studying
with peers who are more informed
and skilled than them.
Conclusion
Simply referred to as thinking about thinking,
metacognition is recognized as a regulatory system
that makes a learner fully aware of his or her cognitive
performance. Through the help of the teachers,
learners can be assisted in monitoring and controlling
their learning.
