The analysis of Metacognitive skills is a key element to guide the learning process. Current research has shown the initiation of these skills from an early age. The present study had two aims: (1) to validate a Scale Measuring Precursor Metacognitive Skills (SMPMS) in children with diverse disabilities, and (2) to study possible significant different between different disabilities in precursor...

Metacognition is integral in the cycle of self-regulated learning. Enhancing learner’s metacognitive skills is a focus of many studies. Offering learning analytics to learners about learning has also gained popularity as a means to improve their metacognitive skills. A key question is, What types of analytics can meaningfully prompt change? We propose Chi’s (2009; 2014) ICAP framework can lend ...

This article examines the role of cognitive, metacognitive, and motivational skills in problem solving. Cognitive skills include instructional objectives, components in a learning hierarchy, and components in information processing. Metacognitive skills include strategies for reading comprehension, writing, and mathematics. Motivational skills include motivation based on interest, self-efficacy...

The first objective of this study was to establish to what extent metacognitive skill development is associated with intelligence. As a second objective, the generality vs. domainspecificity of maturing metacognitive skills was investigated. Both issues have major implications for the training and transferability of metacognitive skills. Participants from four age groups (fourth-, sixth-, and e...

This paper presents the core ideas of my doctoral research project. The purposes of my research are (1) to investigate better means to make students learn important metacognitive skills (such as planning and self−monitoring) during problem solving activities when using a computer based learning environments; (2) to design and develop a learning system that can act as a assistant that helps stud...

This study examined how knowledge of metacognitive strategies and navigation skills mediate the relationship between online reading activities and printed reading assessment (PRA) and electronic reading assessment (ERA) across 19 countries using the PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) 2009 database. Participants were 34 104 fifteen-year-old students (female: 50.1%). The result...

Strong metacognition skills are associated with learning outcomes and student performance. Metacognition includes metacognitive knowledge-our awareness of our thinking-and metacognitive regulation-how we control our thinking to facilitate learning. In this study, we targeted metacognitive regulation by guiding students through self-evaluation assignments following the first and second exams in ...

This paper provides guidelines for designing metacognitive maps in web-based learning environments. A metacognitive map is a visual interface-based tool that supports metacognition throughout the entire learning process. Inspired by the four key metacognitive skills of planning, monitoring, evaluating, and revising, the metacognitive map is composed of two sub-maps (global and local tracking ma...
