![Page 8: College of Nursing presentation August 20, 2013](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051314/558c0744d8b42a473a8b45d3/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Metacognition involves an active awareness of the processes of thinking and reasoning that we engage in when attempting to learn
![Page 9: College of Nursing presentation August 20, 2013](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051314/558c0744d8b42a473a8b45d3/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Why Teach Metacognition?
Not all students enter the university with the necessary skills to succeed in their chosen discipline.
![Page 10: College of Nursing presentation August 20, 2013](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051314/558c0744d8b42a473a8b45d3/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
There is almost no relationship between how well students think they know material and how well they perform on an exam.
Plotnik & Kouyoumdijan, 2011

Over the past four decades there has been a dramatic rise in the number of freshman students that rate their abilitiesabove average.

“Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge”
- Charles Darwin

Why Teach Metacognition?
By teaching metacognitive skills we can help students to overcome any bad study habits and gaps in their understanding and we can encourage them to assume responsibility for their own learning.

Helping students to recognize and retain what they’ve learned

Think about your own thinking
What works for you? How do you gain understanding of new concepts? What tools or tricks work for you to remember and recall information when needed?
![Page 21: College of Nursing presentation August 20, 2013](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051314/558c0744d8b42a473a8b45d3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

respond at PollEv.com/metacognition
The 4 letters Represent:
D = Frontal Integrative cortex
A = Premotor and Motor
B = Sensory and Postsensory
C = Temporal Integrative Cortex
![Page 31: College of Nursing presentation August 20, 2013](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051314/558c0744d8b42a473a8b45d3/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Important functions of the cortex
Matching stages of the experiential learning cycle
The sensory cortex receives information from the outside world
Matches with the common definition of concrete experience
The temporal integrative cortex integrates sensory information to create images and meaning
Matches what happens during reflection, for example remembering relevant information, free association & mentally reviewing experiences
The frontal integrative cortex is responsible for short term memory, problem solving, making decisions and directing action.
Matches well with the generation of abstractions, which requires manipulation of images and language to create new arrangements
The motor cortex directly triggers all coordinated and voluntary muscle contractions by the body
This matches with the necessity for action in the completion of the learning cycle. Active testing of abstractions requires conversion of ideas into physical action.

Revealing Unknown Unknowns
McGraw Hill’s LearnSmart system attempts to reveal to students their lack of awareness of unknown content by asking them to evaluate their confidence before responding to each question
![Page 46: College of Nursing presentation August 20, 2013](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051314/558c0744d8b42a473a8b45d3/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
“Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge”
- Charles Darwinc
The system tracks the responses along with the level of confidence to reveal those questions that students don’t realize they do not know.

Mazur’s Key Points
The better you know something the more difficult it is to teach the beginner
Much of our learning takes place outside of the classroom
Education is not just the transfer of information, it also requires assimilation
Teach by asking, not by telling
