An Introduction to Metacognition

<p>I have been struggling to get my head around Metacognition and what it looks like in the classroom.  In this episode I go right back to Flavell's 1979 paper where he outlines his ideas and discuss a variety of examples of metacognition in the classroom.  I hope you find it a useful introduction to metacognition and a spring board to thinkin about what it looks like in your classroom.</p> <p><img src= "//assets.libsyn.com/show/285743/Metacogition_cycle.jpg" alt="" width="645" height="363" /></p> <p>Useful links:</p> <p><a href= "https://changingstatesofmind.libsyn.com/what-is-cognitive-psychology"> Podcast on Cognitive Psychology</a></p> <p><a href= "https://d2tic4wvo1iusb.cloudfront.net/eef-guidance-reports/metacognition/EEF_Metacognition_and_self-regulated_learning.pdf?v=1672918462"> EEF Metacognition Guidance Document</a> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">(2018) </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Reference: Flavell, John H. 1979. “Metacognition and Cognitive Monitoring: A New Area of Cognitive-Developmental Inquiry.” American Psychologist 34 (10): 906–911.</span></p>
