Metacognition: The Neglected Skill Set for Empowering Students

Empower your students to become mindful, reflective, and proficient thinkers and problem solvers. In Metacognition , authors Robin J. Fogarty and Brian M. Pete provide a practical framework to nurture these essential skills in every learner. Research-based and classroom-approved, this resource is a must-read for educators committed to strengthening student self-awareness, self-assessment, and self-confidence for school and life. Use this resource to implement the critical but overlooked practice of enhancing deep, reflective learning among students in the classroom: Explore research that shows teaching metacognition--or reflective thinking--is one of the most high-impact strategies available to educators. Acquire practices designed to empower learners to cultivate awareness and control over their own thinking. Learn how to encourage students with positive feedback to go beyond the "right" answer by thinking deeply and critically. Study the three categorical labels for the strategies that will help students develop metacognitive behaviors: (1) planning, (2) monitoring, and (3) evaluating. Record and reflect on how you incorporate the teaching strategies into your classroom. Contents: Table of Contents Foreword Introduction Section I: Planning Strategies 1.
