Metacognition! What does it mean to be a metacognitive learner? Note: Metacognition : Noun-Thing Metacognitive : Adjective-Describes Check out your One-Time Only Pass!

What is Metacognition? Being metacognitive means… –Thinking about your thinking. –(Being aware of your own thinking.) The best learners are very aware of the process of their own learning as it’s occurring. Here are some examples…

Examples of Metacognitive Thinking 1) Recognizing when you don’t understand something –Can occur when reading –The same goes for a lecture in class! Note: AP classes usually ask me the most questions during class, and I LOVE it!

Examples of Metacognitive Thinking 2) Knowing your own learning style –Are you an auditory learner? (Learn by hearing) Listening to a lecture, discussion, music Being quizzed by a friend/family member –A visual learner? (Learn by seeing) Seeing printed text (a PowerPoint, nametag, etc.) Seeing/visualizing pictures associated with concepts –A kinesthetic learner? (Learn by doing) Using manipulatives for math or science Writing things down to learn them Flashcards –A combination of the three? That’s what I am!

Ms. Leuschel! Wait…it’s not quite right. Ah. Much better.

Examples of Metacognitive Thinking 3) Knowing how best to organize your notes to facilitate your own learning –Cornell notes? Built-in study guide to quiz yourself! Forces after class review! –Outlining? Shows you how ideas are related (general—specific) I LOVE this way! –Incorporating pictures to remember concepts To draw something visually, you have to really understand it!

Examples of Metacognitive Thinking 4) Knowing how to study so you will learn and remember the material –Flashcards? (visual/auditory/kinesthetic) –Rewriting the material? (kinesthetic/visual) –Having a friend/parent quiz you? (auditory) –Singing/Chanting games to remember facts? (auditory) –A combination of the three? That’s me again! –Realizing when you should study!

Examples of Metacognitive Thinking 5) Knowing your reading strengths and weaknesses –Do you read fiction best? Nonfiction? –Do you space out when you read? –Do you know the best way to read a textbook? –Do you know your favorite genre? –Do you know the genre with which you struggle most? –Do you know what to do when you don’t understand what you read? –Do you know which reading strategies you use? Don’t use?

Why Does it Matter? The more metacognitive you are about your learning, the better learner you will be. You will be amazed at how much better you’ll remember and understand what you learn, and therefore, enjoy it more because you’ll feel more successful! In college, your teachers are no longer responsible for your learning. You are! For many that is a major adjustment. You can apply these behaviors to any class! You can become a ROCK STAR STUDENT!

The End! …or is it?
