  he coined metacognition and believes that it consists of metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive experience and regulation.
• 1. Metacognitive Knowledge


  what learners know about learning.
• 1. Person Variables

  2. Task Variables

  3. Strategy Variables


  Three categories of Metacognitive Knowledge
• Person Variables


  - knowledge depends on yourself.

  - the learner's knowledge of their own capabilities.

  - how one views himself as a learner and thinker.

  - how they process and learn information as well as individual knowledge.

• Preview

  Question

  Read

  Recite

  Review

  Reflect


  - discussing chapter or unit

  - adult learners
• METACOGNITIVE REGULATION


  - what learners do about learning

  - the process itself.
• REFLECTION

  - Planning

  - Monitoring

  - Evaluation


  METACOGNITIVE REGULATION COMPONENTS ( CYCLE )
• Novice Learners


  - has poor learning strategies results to shallow learning.

  - just started learning.
• Expert Learners


  - mastered metacognitive regulation.

  - Applies metacognitive strategies and monitor themselves.
• Margaret Mead


  who stated that, ""Children must be taught how to think, not on what to think."
• 1. Graphic Organizer

  2. Think Aloud

  3. Journalizing

  4. Error Analysis

  5. Wrapper

  6. Peer Monitoring


  6 Metacognitive Instructions
• Graphic Organizer


  visual illustration that displays relationship between informations.
• KWHLAQ


  Graphic Organizer example
• - What do you KNOW?

  - What do you WANT to know?

  - HOW will you find out?

  - What have you LEARNED?

  - What ACTIONS will you take?

  - What further QUESTIONS do you have?


  KWHLAQ stands for?
• Think Aloud


  in reading, it is creating a record, either through writing or talking aloud. Interpret process through text.

  - EAVESDROPPING on someone's thinking.
• Journalizing


  writing and can be use together with think aloud.

  - what's in their mind

  - what is their realizations

  - what is their resolution
• Error analysis


  systematic approach using feedback metacognitively to improve one's future performance (Hopeman, 2000)
• Wrapper


  engaging metacognition before during and after class

  - giving support before task
• Peer Monitoring


  studying with peers who are more skilled and informed.
