This paper describes ongoing research that is developing a computer− based learning system called the Reflection Assistant. The system is designed to monitor and scaffold students’ use of metacognitive skills in a problem−solving context. The rationale behind it is that to develop good problem solvers, it is necessary to focus as much on the metacognitive processes of problem solving as on the ...

This study focuses on the effect of a task model on learning to solve problems and the use of metacognitive skills. In two conditions, students played KM Quest, a simulation-gaming environment for the domain of Knowledge Management (KM). In one condition, students had the KM model available that prescribed how to solve KM problems. The other condition provided no such task model. Forty-six stud...

The purpose of this research was to investigate high school students’ computer self-efficacy (CSE) and learning behavior in a selfregulated learning (SRL) framework while utilizing an interactive learning module. The researcher hypothesizes that CSE is reflected on cognitive actions and metacognitive strategies while the students are engaged with interactive learning modules. Two research quest...

this study aimed to investigate the relationship between metacognitive beliefs and self-efficacy in elementary school teachers and their professional skills of orumieh city. the population of this study was all 984 elementary school teachers of second region of orumieh ,so 276 of them were chosen according to kocran formula. three metacognitive beliefs, professional competence and sherer’s self...

aims: metacognition deals with active monitoring and adjusting the results and cognitive processes to gain the purpose. academic self-efficacy is dependent on students’ perception of learning and is an important factor in the success of students reasoning. this study aimed to determine the effectiveness of metacognitive skills training on metacognitive awareness, self-efficacy and academic achi...

The aim of the study was analyzing predictive relations between reading strategies metacognitive awareness and problem posing skills seventh grade students. Within study, 373 students participated. data collected using “Metacognitive Awareness Reading Strategies Inventory” “Problem Posing Skills Test”. Through analysis data, simple linear regression used. As a result it determined that levels s...

The present research investigated whether immediate metacognitive feedback on students’ help-seeking errors can help students acquire better help-seeking skills. The Help Tutor, an intelligent tutor agent for help seeking, was integrated into a commercial tutoring system for geometry, the Geometry Cognitive Tutor. Study 1, with 58 students, found that the real-time assessment of students’ help-...

Adapting to learners’ needs and providing useful, individualized feedback to help them succeed has been a hallmark of most intelligent tutoring systems. More recently, to promote deep learning and critical thinking skills in STEM disciplines, researchers have begun developing open-ended learning environments that present learners with complex problems and a set of tools for learning and problem...

The study is based on the use of a flexible learning framework to help students improve information processes underlying strategy instruction in EFL listening. By exploiting the online videotext self-dictation-generation (video-SDG) learning activity implemented on the YouTube caption manager platform, the learning cycle was emphasized to promote metacognitive listening development. Two theorie...
