I write this blog because I know that teachers teach, more importantly, teaching students to learn how to learn rather than teach students to learn what knowledge, students learn not just to learn what the process is knowledge, but should also attach importance to How to cultivate learning and study habits.
What is metacognition? Psychologists that: people have their own thought processes and understanding the process of awareness is an important feature of cognitive processes, meta-cognition can be summed up simply as "the cognitive process of understanding," meta-cognitive ability include three aspects: metacognitive knowledge, metacognitive experiences, metacognitive monitoring. The key question now is how the teaching of our students meta-cognitive ability? This is what we want to talk about the next meta-cognitive strategies of teaching and learning:
Teaching strategies:
1, the student's attention from the transfer of learning outcomes to their own cognitive processes: learning to write diaries, diary can include a, the main elements of today's learning; b, together with the relevant knowledge points and the link between knowledge points; c, are listed in their own thinking again the problem is still unclear. d, will be easily mixed with the concept of a list control.
2, to enhance students understanding of others and their own sense of the process, such as teachers, to express themselves through language demonstrate their thought processes on some issues; ask students to describe their thinking process and guide the other students to evaluate their thought processes; give students a specific tasks to enable students to evaluate the difficulty of this task to explain himself to complete this task steps and methods, and evaluate each other.
3, guide students to self-doubt, to develop their sense of responsibility for learning and reflection of their own habits of thought processes, such as "I know what to do? I right operations require clear? I The purpose of this work clear? I do this right? I am sure the job done it? "
4, guide students in reading, or problem-solving process, frequently asked ourselves some questions: If I understand this right? In addition to the literal meaning of this sentence there is a deeper level means?
Learning strategies:
1, read the process of meta-cognitive strategies
Conscious of the need from the materials identified important information; control of their own to focus on the main content of the material, rather than the details; examination and reflection on reading the original goal or sub-objectives are achieved, realize that they are approaching the goal is still missed the target, and to keep adjusting reading strategies; aware of other interference factors and their mental state, if you are unable to focus on the situation, should take measures to extricate themselves from.
2, self-regulated learning strategies
Establish goals and develop plans; actively seeking and learning tasks related to other knowledge; active recording learning content and learning outcomes; on their own learning process and quality inspection and evaluation; a sense of seeking the help of others; self-rewards and punishments, if the Yes / No done, how I is; right to organize reading material and conversion; and to arrange the learning environment.
If we can give students training in this area, and to enable students to develop habits, then the students in their future area of expertise to achieve the professional development is not a very difficult thing has. A lot of people talking about the ability to reflect, in fact, I think it is a matter of habit to cultivate awareness and reflection, and then come back to talk about capacity, it more reasonable.
