Chapter 8 Developing an Instructional Strategycdjhaigler
The document discusses developing instructional strategies. It outlines the typical components of an instructional strategy, including pre-instructional activities to motivate learners, content presentation, learner participation through practice and feedback, assessments, and follow-through activities. Instructional strategies should consider learners' characteristics, objectives, and select appropriate groupings, media, and delivery systems based on these factors. Effective strategies demonstrate knowledge of learners and tasks while enhancing creativity in lesson design.
This document discusses cognitive and metacognitive factors that influence learning. It states that successful learning involves intentionally constructing meaning, creating coherent knowledge representations, and linking new information with existing knowledge in meaningful ways. Developing metacognition, or thinking about thinking, is identified as a powerful predictor of learning. Metacognition allows learners to understand what they know and don't know. The document outlines basic metacognitive strategies like connecting information, selecting thinking strategies, and evaluating thinking processes. It distinguishes cognitive strategies, which are goal-directed and situation-specific, from metacognitive strategies, which involve more universal skills like planning, monitoring, and evaluation. Developing metacognition requires creating an environment where thinking is discussed, planned
The document discusses several theories related to learner development:
1. Sigmund Freud emphasized that personality consists of the id (pleasure-centered), ego (reality-centered), and superego (conscience). He also believed people progress through 5 psychosexual development stages from oral to genital.
2. Jean Piaget's theory of cognitive development consists of 4 stages from sensorimotor to formal operations based on how children understand and interact with the world.
3. Lev Vygotsky emphasized that social learning and culture influence cognitive development and the zone of proximal development, which is the distance between what learners can do independently vs. with guidance.
Robert Marzano is an educational researcher known for his work identifying instructional strategies that have significant impacts on student achievement. His research found 9 categories of instructional strategies that positively influence student learning, including identifying similarities and differences, summarizing and note-taking, cooperative learning, setting objectives and providing feedback, and others. Marzano's research challenged earlier findings that student achievement was mostly determined by factors outside of schools' control, such as socioeconomic status.

Ch. 8 developing an instructional strategyEzraGray1
This chapter discusses developing instructional strategies that engage learners. It identifies five components of instructional strategies: pre-instructional activities, content presentation and guidance, learner participation, assessment, and follow-through. Each component considers how to motivate, present content, provide practice and feedback, evaluate learning, and facilitate transfer. Instructional strategies aim to support learners' internal cognitive processes by incorporating techniques like gaining attention, presenting objectives, and eliciting performance. Constructivist strategies emphasize reasoning, problem-solving, and situating learning in complex but relevant contexts.
Students come into our courses with knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes gained in other courses and through daily life. As students bring this knowledge to bear in our classrooms, it influences how they filter and interpret what they are learning. If students’ prior knowledge is robust and accurate and activated at the appropriate time, it provides a strong foundation for building new knowledge. However, when knowledge is inert, insufficient for the task, activated inappropriately, or inaccurate, it can interfere with or impede new learning. To apply this principle, consider the following teaching techniques:
Administer a diagnostic assessment or have students assess their own prior knowledge (See “Selected Classroom Assessment Techniques (CATs) for Getting Feedback on Student Learning”).
Use brainstorming to reveal prior knowledge.
Identify discipline-specific conventions explicitly.
Ask students to make and test predictions (See “Teaching for Retention in Science, Engineering & Mathematics”).

UNDERSTANDING BY DESIGN. module 5.. aj. :)Jinwei Segundo
This document provides an overview of Understanding by Design, an educational framework for designing curriculum and lessons. It describes the three stages of Understanding by Design as Desired Results, Assessment Evidence, and Learning Plan. It also outlines the six facets of understanding as Explanation, Interpretation, Application, Perspective, Empathy, and Self-Understanding. Finally, it provides examples of learning activities and teaching methods that can be used to engage students and promote deep learning.
This document discusses using a learning by teaching approach to teach collaboration skills in an e-learning environment. It first defines collaboration skills as behaviors that help people work together effectively, including participation, perspective taking, and social regulation. It then questions whether collaboration skills can be taught and assessed through e-learning tools and if learning by teaching is an appropriate method. Some advantages of the learning by teaching approach are that it motivates students and helps them gain skills like teamwork, though it requires more time and effort from both students and teachers. The challenge is how to design an e-learning environment that teaches collaboration skills through this approach.
This document discusses various approaches and strategies for learning physical sciences. It begins by explaining the traditional learning approach where the teacher transmits facts passively to students. Alternative approaches discussed include constructivism, where learning is active and student-centered. The document also differentiates between approaches, which are broader ways of thinking, and strategies, which are specific plans. It provides examples of strategies like concept mapping, concept formation, assimilation vs accommodation, experiential learning, and collaborative learning approaches like brainstorming, task groups, and inquiry groups. Ensuring meaningful learning through collaborative approaches involves forming heterogeneous groups and facilitating student responsibility, idea sharing, and goal achievement.

The document discusses autonomous learning and strategies to promote learner autonomy. Autonomous learning refers to students taking responsibility for and control of their own learning independent of teacher guidance. Characteristics of autonomous learners include knowing their own needs and goals, learning both in and out of class, and adjusting learning strategies as needed. Steps teachers can take to increase learner autonomy include stopping spoon-feeding students, implementing autonomous assignments, increasing student responsibility, starting autonomy training early, and encouraging creativity. The document also discusses communication, cognitive, and metacognitive strategies that students employ to regulate their own learning.
There are three types of variables that affect teaching and learning:
1. Independent variables - Elements that a teacher or researcher manipulates, such as using multimedia displays, to see their effect on other variables.
2. Dependent variables - Outcomes or results that are measured in response to changes in the independent variable, such as students' understanding of a concept.
3. Extraneous variables - Other variables besides the independent variable that could influence the dependent variable, like student characteristics, and need to be controlled for.
The document discusses the key components in developing an effective instructional strategy, including selecting a delivery system, sequencing content, choosing appropriate student groupings and media, and determining the learning components. It describes the typical learning components as pre-instructional activities to motivate learners, content presentation, learner participation through practice and feedback, assessments, and follow-through activities. Additionally, it notes the importance of considering learners' characteristics, abilities, and the types of learning outcomes when developing an instructional strategy.

Applying language learning theories to the use of virtual classroom in teaching literature –a pilot study
John Dewey, Jean Piaget, and Audrey Gray are some of the proponents of Constructivism. Constructivism represents a paradigm shift from education based on behaviourism to education based on cognitive theory. Behaviourist model for instructional design develops a set of instructional sequences having predefined outputs which are used for subject development. Cognitive theory concentrates on the conceptualization of students’ learning processes and exploration of the way information is received, organized, retained and used by the brain (Thompson et al, 1996).
Gagnon and Collay (1999) state that in constructivist paradigm, knowledge is constructed by learners during (1) active learning, (2) making their own representation of action, (3) conveying meaning to others, and (4) explaining things they don‘t understand completely. At the minimum, a learning environment contains: the student and a setting or space wherein the student acts, uses tools and devices, collects and interprets information, interacts with others, etc. (Wilson, 1996)
According to constructivists, knowledge is not received from the outside or from someone else; it is the individual student’s interpretation and processing of what is received through the senses that creates knowledge. Students should be allowed to construct knowledge rather than being given knowledge through instruction (Duffy & Cunningham, 1996).
This document outlines strategies for effective social studies teaching and learning. It discusses how learning is constructed based on prior knowledge and facilitated through metacognitive strategies. Learners' motivation and the social context of learning also impact what is learned. Effective teaching engages students' prior knowledge, addresses misconceptions, and provides opportunities for collaboration. The document contrasts direct instruction, which is teacher-led and focuses on skills and concepts, with indirect instruction, which emphasizes student involvement in problem-solving and discovery learning with teacher facilitation.
Metacognition involves thinking about one's own cognitive processes and thinking style. It is essential for effective learning as it allows people to self-monitor and adapt their learning strategies. The advantages of metacognition include developing independent, life-long learners who can control their own learning. Teachers can foster metacognition in students by using multiple representations of concepts and activities to help students think about how they learn best. The goal of metacognition is to help students set learning goals and adapt their strategies based on self-monitoring of progress towards goals.
The document discusses the five main components of curriculum: (1) targets, (2) items, (3) study strategies, (4) curriculum organization, and (5) evaluation. It elaborates on each component, including that targets of basic education aim to develop intelligence, knowledge, personality, behavior, and life skills. Items or teaching materials are compiled logically and systematically. Study strategies emphasize contextual, individual, direct learning using techniques like group work, discussions, and role playing. The teacher takes on the roles of facilitator, motivator, and guide.

The document discusses the pros and cons of lobbying. It begins by defining lobbying as attempting to influence government officials' decisions, especially legislators. It notes that lobbying is done by individuals, corporations, advocacy groups, and other interested parties. While lobbying allows for representation of various constituencies, it can also be dominated by powerful corporate interests that seek to influence policy for their own benefit rather than the public good. When special interests have outsized influence, it can undermine democracy by diminishing the impact of voters' choices. The document suggests lobbying has led to fundamental changes in the US that are detrimental to democracy.

This study examined how body composition, size, and age affect glucose regulation in fasting individuals. Blood glucose levels were measured for three subjects at intervals over 120 minutes. Subject 1 and the experimental subject had similar glucose levels initially, but Subject 1 did not regulate glucose as well later on. Subject 2 had high glucose at all readings, indicating poor regulation, and was the oldest with the highest BMI and waist-to-hip ratio. The results suggest body composition plays an important role in how well the body regulates glucose levels during fasting.

Abstract—In the last few decades, there has been growing research interest
in investigating the positive relationship between metacognitive strategies, con-
scious learning, and achievement. However, the lack of a uniform classification
indicates a need to map the different approaches, so as to discover the corner-
stone strategies that result in ascending the knowledge and consequently the
consciousness pyramid. The outcome of this study place executive functions,
self-monitoring, and adaptation at the heart of these strategies.
Keywords—Metacognitive learning strategies, self-regulation, executive func-
tions, self-awareness, consciousness
1 Introduction
The term metacognition could be defined as the ability of individuals to know their
cognitive functions, monitor them while they operate, control and adjust them accord-
ing to the needs of the learning process [1], [2]. Modern studies divide metacognition
into two major and interrelated components: metacognitive knowledge and metacog-
nitive regulation [3], [4]. The metacognitive knowledge’s sub-components consist of
declarative knowledge (knowledge about the way we learn), procedural (knowledge
about the appropriate learning strategies) and conditional (knowledge about the con-
text in which strategies could be implemented) [5]. Metacognitive regulation includes
planning, monitoring, and evaluation and could be considered as “self-management”
of cognition involving reflective “self-appraisal” which supports awareness and has
been labeled executive control [6].
Metacognitive strategies refer to conscious monitoring [7], sequential processes to
control learning [8], higher order executive skills [9], decisions learners make before,
during and after the learning [10]. It has been proved that the implementation of met-
acognitive strategies empowers higher-order cognitive abilities, attentional and
memory control, self-confidence and leads to independent and meaningful learning
[11]. Classification of strategies varies, depending on the definitions adopted and the
different associations and connotations within different research domains. Despite
significant research efforts on metacognition and its learning strategies, there are still
confusion and fundamental questions about their precise structure, their functions in
gaining self-knowledge in learning and their conjunction with the notion of con-
sciousness.

2. Paper—A Journey into the Metacognitive Learning Strategies
2 Methodology
The main focus of the present review article was concentrated on the cartography
of various metacognitive learning strategies adopted in research studies that revealed
a positive relationship between the aforementioned strategies and effective learning.
Moreover, repeated strategies with a positive effect on various learning tasks were an
equally important criterion. In the present study, we adopt a holistic thinking approach
about metacognition, metacognitive strategies, and consciousness. It is hypothesized
that all these notions give the distorted impression of complexity or multiplicity,
whereas they co-exist in the same spectrum and overlap in a perfect and endless loop,
a “henosis” sharing the same substance.
3 Seeking for Metacognitive Learning Strategies
Nemouchi [12] highlighted a set of interrelated metacognitive strategies for EFL
writing in teaching and learning processes. The researcher selected and analyzed
strategies with social, affective and cognitive dimensions:
• Planning: Advanced organization: Preview the main ideas, identify the organiz-
ing principle. Organizational planning: Plan how to achieve in setting goals, deter-
mine the parts and sequence ideas to express. Selective attention: Read and listen
selectively focusing on keywords, phrases, ideas, linguistic markers, types of in-
formation, scan and isolate the specific information. Self-management: Determine
conditions such as the time, the way and the place facilitating your learning.
• Monitoring comprehension and production: Reflect on your own learning style.
Gain awareness about your best learning. Define the conditions that ascertain, fos-
ter learning. Be concentrated and determine the opportunities for applying the con-
tent to be learned in various tasks.
• Evaluating: Reflect on the efficiency of the learning strategies used. Recognize the
strengths and the weaknesses.
• The knowledge monitoring skill: Determine what is known and unknown. Direct
the attention and resources adequately.
• Cooperative learning: Engage in the learning process. Discuss, analyze, explain
and evaluate cooperatively.
• Self-reflection (Self-management): Organize information into a coherent
knowledge structure. Analyze situations, generate hypotheses, and decide how to
solve problems.
• Metacognitive scaffolding: Relate the use of a given tool to the accomplishment
of the task.
• Modeling: Use models of metacognition. Identify and conceptualize the principles
in problem-solving.
• Self-questioning: Pose self-questions identifying the mission of important points.
• Thinking aloud and Self-explanations: Externalize the thought processes and the
content of a task.

3. Paper—A Journey into the Metacognitive Learning Strategies
The aforementioned strategies enable students to accomplish complex tasks, to be
independent, self-sufficient and creative self-directed learners. Nemouchi concluded
that improved metacognitive strategies comprise a gift that helps students not only to
improve their performance but also to raise self-awareness in other words conscious-
ness.
Du Toit et al. [13] investigated the extent to which metacognitive strategies are
used by mathematics learners and teachers in the learning of mathematics. The ques-
tionnaire data was based on twelve from the following thirteen metacognitive strate-
gies:
• Planning strategy
• Generating questions
• Choosing consciously
• Setting and pursuing goals
• Evaluating the way of thinking and acting
• Identifying the difficulty
• Paraphrasing, elaborating and reflecting ideas
• Clarifying terminology
• Problem-solving activities
• Thinking aloud
• Journal-keeping
• Cooperative learning
• Modeling
The results of the study revealed that learners employed evaluating the ways of
thinking and acting, planning strategies, choosing consciously and identifying the
difficulty most. In contrast, cooperative learning, thinking aloud and journal keeping
was used to the least extent. In an attempt to explain the different performance, Du
Toit concluded that learners appeared to be well-organized and aware of their
strengths and weaknesses, notwithstanding it is necessary to be encouraged to verbal-
ly express their thoughts in a group setting.
Parlan et al. [14] made an experimental study on the quality of prospective chemis-
try teachers’ scientific explanations. After dividing 62 students of chemistry education
program into two classes, the first group was taught by expository learning and the
experimental class by metacognitive strategies. The strategies involved in the training
sessions were:
• Preparing: Review the teaching ability. Determine the learning goal, choose the
learning strategy and arrange the learning schedule. Finally, identify the significant
goals, the relevant prior knowledge and the concepts that have been understood and
finally make question lists.
• Doing: Get involved in the learning activity.
• Checking: Monitor the planning, assess the learning, check the effectiveness of the
learning method, reflect on the learning process used.
• Assessing and following-up: Give the feedback and follow up with the learning
outcome.

4. Paper—A Journey into the Metacognitive Learning Strategies
The results of data analysis showed that metacognitive learning strategies not only
improve the students’ ability to construct scientific explanations but also enable stu-
dents to learn critically and meaningfully.
Segedy et al. [15] presented an integrated cognitive and metacognitive model for
effective and self-regulated learning strategies in Betty’s Brain, a computer-based
open-ended learning environment. The main aim of the aforementioned model was to
develop an intervention tool helping learners adopt more effective strategies for pre-
paring and regulating their future learning. Betty’s Brain environment is based on the
learning-by teaching paradigm. Specifically, middle school students were given the
task of teaching a computer agent with the help of a mentor agent so as to gain famili-
arity with and employ several cognitive and metacognitive skills. Within the area of
metacognition, the model illustrates the following metacognitive strategies:
• Goal-setting & planning: Identify, choose and plan to achieve goals.
• Knowledge of construction: Knowledge acquisition, verification.
• Monitoring: Assess understanding, identify and correct misconceptions and in-
complete representations and assess progress toward the goal.
• Help-seeking: Identify impasse or difficulty. Ask a mentor for specific advice or a
hint.
The application of this model raises learners’ in difficulty awareness since they are
motivated to develop more effective learning strategies, seek feedback through a con-
versation with the mentor agent, and take control of their learning.
Nosratinia et al. [16] examined the relationship of metacognitive learning strategies
to listening comprehension achievement on English as a Foreign Language. To fulfill
this objective, sixty female and male students were chosen as the participants of the
study and were divided into four homogeneous groups: two control groups and two
experimental. The last group received Metacognitive Strategy training based on An-
derson’s 2002 model [17]. According to the aforementioned model, metacognitive
strategies consist of five major components:
• Preparing and planning for learning: Set and achieve goals.
• Selecting and using learning strategies in a given context for a specific pur-
pose: Think and make conscious decisions about the learning process.
• Monitoring strategy use: Direct learning progress, revisit the strategies that are
employed and ensure the correct implementation of the strategy.
• Orchestrating various strategies: Coordinate, organize, relate different strategies.
• Evaluating strategy use and learning: Make self-questions, debrief discussions
after strategy practice.
Intensive statistical analysis on listening post-test revealed a significant difference
in scores between the experimental group (M=23.43, SD=1.54) and the control group
(M=19.95, SD=2.54). The magnitude of the difference in the means was so large that
Nosratinia concluded metacognitive learning strategies have a significant effect on
EFL learner’s listening comprehension.

5. Paper—A Journey into the Metacognitive Learning Strategies
Ersozlu et al. [18] made quantitative research on the relevance between reasoning
skills and their levels of using metacognitive learning strategies. Mathematical Rea-
soning Rating Scale and Metacognitive Learning Strategies Scale were applied to the
first-year students from the Education Faculty. The last scale embodied the following
metacognitive subscales: planning strategies, organizational strategies, controlling
strategies and assessment strategies.
The findings revealed a positive but weak relationship between reasoning and us-
ing planning. A positive and average relationship with organizational controlling and
assessment strategies was found. Ersozlu concluded that the candidate teachers may
use metacognitive learning strategies at higher-level as their levels of mathematical
reasoning increase enabling thinking about mathematical concepts and creating logi-
cal links between mathematical relationships.
Kim et al. [19] explored the effects of metacognitive strategies on academic and
gaming achievement via player’s social problem-solving. To achieve this goal, a Mas-
sively Multiple Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG), Gersang was used as a
game-based learning environment in economics, providing scaffolding for problem-
solving and fostering intrinsic motivation. After being tested, a homogenized group of
132 ninth grades with the same gaming ability was taught 20 economic concepts by
metacognitive learning strategies. In this study, based on three dimensions of meta-
cognition (self-planning, self-monitoring, self-evaluation), three metacognitive strate-
gies were developed:
• Self-recorded strategy: Students were engaged in a three-phase reflective meta-
cognitive process: Firstly, recording their prior knowledge before students start
gameplay. Secondly, determining and monitoring if the activities were related to
the game mission. Thirdly, recording reflections, upon finishing their gameplay.
• Modeling: The ability of making strategies by observing the others. Modeling
requires identification of the game missions and activities, determination of the
target player to observe during the play, observation of targets player’s strategies
and conceptualization of player’s own strategies, application of player’s own strat-
egies and finally evaluation of their efficacy compared to the target player.
• Thinking aloud: Verbal expression of the covert mental processes. Students use
glossaries intended to relate their learning plan to their learning objectives before
they start playing and explaining their game process to their fellow players
throughout the gameplay.
Participants played the online game 45 minutes a day, twice a week for 10 weeks.
Every 20 game-based learning sessions, students completed three checklists for the
metacognitive strategies. In the last session, the social problem-solving and the aca-
demic achievement post-tests were also completed. Path analysis revealed that meta-
cognitive strategies seem to play an important role in social problem-solving abilities
which is the path for academic and gaming achievements. Moreover, ‘thinking aloud’
strategy is characterized as the best way of creating problem solving abilities.
Shannon [20] investigated the most preferred metacognitive strategies for self-
directed learning. A total of 40 chemistry students were surveyed in the research pro-
ject using the Perceptual Modality Preference Survey (PMPS) as a learning strategy
8 http://www.i-joe.org
6. Paper—A Journey into the Metacognitive Learning Strategies
assessment tool. According to the Institute for Learning Styles Research, there are
seven percept styles: print, aural, visual, interactive, haptic, kinesthetic and olfactory.
Afterward, the students were taught a different metacognitive strategy every week
during the 10 weeks project. Eventually, the students reflected on the effectiveness of
each strategy with the overall focus of becoming more self-directed learners. The
model adopted [21] consists of the following strategies:
• Predicting outcomes: Understand the kinds of information that lead to successful
problem solving.
• Evaluating work: Determine the strengths and weaknesses of the work.
• Self-assessing: Reflect on the effectiveness of learning.
• Self-questioning: Use questions to check knowledge during the learning task.
• Questioning by the teacher: Answer teacher’s questions during the task.
• Selective strategies: Decide which strategies are useful for a given task.
• Using directed or selective thinking: Choose consciously a specific line of think-
ing.
• Using discourse: Discuss ideas with each other.
• Critiquing: Provide feedback to other students about their work in a constructive
way.
• Revising: Return work after receiving feedback.
Shannon concluded on the strong connection between learning styles and metacog-
nitive strategies. Particularly, the findings indicated that haptic and kinesthetic learn-
ers chose to select strategies, while interactive learners preferred critiquing and revis-
ing. Furthermore, visual learners used self-questioning and predicting outcomes, aural
learners questioning and print learners self-assessing strategies. The majority of the
students preferred metacognitive questioning. Among these results, students that used
metacognitive questions became more curious and motivated. Finally, throughout the
study, the researcher found that no matter the learning style a student might prefer, all
of the students continuously evaluate their performance and their progress.
Kisac et al. [22] explored the correlation between the metacognitive strategies and
the levels of self-confidence about learning. Managing Metacognition Inventory was
applied to 400 university students chosen from different schools and departments. The
study focused on three essential skills (planning, monitoring and evaluation) and the
following metacognitive strategies:
• Note-taking: Record the main ideas before making decisions about what to write.
• Summarizing: Write brief statements that represent the main ideas.
• Outlining main points of the material in a hierarchical format.
• Reflecting: Relate the prior knowledge with the existing information.
• Reciting: State points out loud, asking and answering questions.
• Reviewing: Ask self-questions, repeat learning.
The results showed that strategies as note-taking, summarizing, outlining and re-
flecting were used most, while reciting and reviewing means were averages indicating
iJOE ‒ Vol. 15, No. 14, 2019 9
7. Paper—A Journey into the Metacognitive Learning Strategies
that students prefer less recalling and repeating. It was also found that the use of met-
acognitive strategies coincide with higher levels of self-confidence.
Bautista [23] discerned the learning impact of cognitive and metacognitive learning
strategies when used in desktop teaching. A Descriptive-Correlation Research Design
was used on twenty-eight first-semester students-respondents of the study. As regards
the determination of cognitive and metacognitive strategies, a questionnaire devel-
oped by Pintrich et al. [24] was adopted encompassing the following strategies:
• Rehearsal strategies: Activate information in working memory via enumeration,
recitation, memorization of keywords and context clues and listing. These strate-
gies influence attention and encoding processes.
• Elaboration strategies: Store information into long-term memory by building
internal connections between items to be learned. Paraphrase, summarize, create
analogies and take notes so as to associate new information with prior knowledge.
• Organization strategies: Select the appropriate information and construct connec-
tions among to information to be learned. Examples of organizing strategies are
clustering, outlining and selecting the main idea.
• Critical thinking: The application of previous knowledge to new situations in
problem-solving, decision making and in critical evaluation.
• Self-regulation strategies: Activities that lead to control of cognition and aware-
ness through three general processes: planning (goal setting, task analysis), moni-
toring (self-testing, questioning) and regulating (checking and correcting learning
behaviors).
The research showed that the student-respondents not only use a variety of cogni-
tive and metacognitive learning strategies but also are aware of the interdependence
between successful learning and metacognitive strategy use.
Penuela [25] conducted a qualitative action research study on the impact of using
metacognitive strategies on the language awareness of stress and intonation in the
context of English as a foreign language. Ten adult learners with difficulties in using
suprasegmentals participated in a three-cycle research process which included: train-
ing in three metacognitive strategies, identifying suprasegmental features from video
or audio input and monitoring of the feature through the metacognitive strategy they
had learned respectively. In the current study, three metacognitive strategies were
selected regarding mostly Oxford’s model [26].
• Overviewing: Center learning. Understand why an activity is being done. Con-
sciously pay closer attention. Relate previous theoretical knowledge to the upcom-
ing tasks.
• Setting goals and objectives: Arrange and plan learning, set aims for language
learning and keep track of these objectives in a journal along with deadlines.
• Self-evaluating: Assess progress in the target language by recording and listening
to yourself in different controlled and spontaneous tasks.
After analyzing the learning logs, the recorded artifacts and the field notes, Penuela
affirmed that language awareness was fostered because metacognitive strategies gave
10 http://www.i-joe.org
8. Paper—A Journey into the Metacognitive Learning Strategies
them steps towards self-regulation. Specifically, they seemed to be aware of the diffi-
culties and the possible ways to improve. Listening to themselves, students had a
more realistic perception of themselves as intelligible speakers and felt more confi-
dent despite the difficulties. Penuela suggested a triadic metacognitive-based process
for gaining awareness that involves:
• Language awareness
• Self-awareness
• Learning awareness processes.
Tang [27] made comparative research among high and low language achievers of
English with the intention to elaborate an effective metacognitive strategy training
model based on the identification of their strengths and weaknesses. For this purpose,
166 Chinese students (61 and 105 high and low language achievers respectively)
completed the Modified Strategy Inventory for Language Learning of Oxford [26]
that consists of the following metacognitive strategies:
• Centering your learning: Overview, pay attention and delay speech.
• Arranging and planning: Organize, set goals, identify, plan and seek practice.
• Evaluating: Monitor and assess yourself.
In respect of the overall strategy use, this study showed that metacognitive strate-
gies are used more frequently and more effectively by high achievers, while the most
significant difference was found in evaluating. One of the issues that emerged from
these findings is that metacognitive strategies encompass a powerful tool that should
be used to support the low achievers becoming consciously aware of their learning
processes and progress.
Bazi [28] determined the metacognitive learning strategies of physician candidates
and analyzed them in terms of the variables of gender, class level and academic suc-
cess. The Metacognitive Learning Strategies Scale was applied to 614 male and fe-
male 1st
, 2nd
and 3rd-
year students examining the following metacognitive strategies:
• Organization strategies: Prepare the mind while starting to study. Determine the
information according to the existing metacognitive schemas. Define the subjects
and the key concepts. Review the context to be learned.
• Planning strategies: Do things in time. Be mentally prepared, be adapted in task’s
conditions.
• Observation strategies: Focus on the continual self-learning during the learning
activity. Compare new with the previous information assessing the accuracy. De-
termine validity and hierarchical structure of information during learning enabling
self-observation.
• Evaluation strategies: Self-assess what is learned and to what extent it is learned.
Use strategies including self-testing in terms of information and analyze unknown
information according to test results.
Following the collected data, students in general use organization and observation
strategies more effectively than evaluation and planning, while female students
iJOE ‒ Vol. 15, No. 14, 2019 11
9. Paper—A Journey into the Metacognitive Learning Strategies
achieve better performance than male candidates. Furthermore, 1st
-year students sur-
pass the 2nd
and 3rd
-year students, while in literature is argued the opposite thesis.
Future research could focus on the relationship between the aforementioned variables
and the metacognitive learning strategy use. Metacognitive learning strategies, as a
whole, were related to academic success and positive self-perception.
Heidari et al. [29] made an experimental study to evaluate the effect of cognitive
and metacognitive strategies learning on academic achievement among nursing stu-
dents. The study population consisted of 40 nursing students divided into two sub-
groups of control and experimental. The last group received 10 session training on
cognitive and metacognitive learning strategies. At the end of the training, a pre-test,
a post-test and follow-up academic achievement test were completed. After the sixth
session, the students were taught the metacognitive strategies (strategies for monitor-
ing, guiding, and changing the cognitive strategies if necessary) as follow:
• Planning: Determine the objective of the study. Predict the required time for the
study. Identify the speed of study and select a particular cognitive strategy.
• Control and Monitoring: Assess the study progress. Monitor attention and learn-
ing. Pose self-questions during the study, control study time and speed, predict ex-
amination questions.
• Regulation: Adjust study speed and study time. Modify or alter the cognitive strat-
egy for study.
The current study found that the instruction of metacognitive learning strategies
improved significantly the academic achievement. The Anova showed that the mean
value of the experimental group was higher than the control group on both tests. For
instance, at the post-test, the mean values were 16.67 for the experimental group and
13.47 for the control group.
Mohammadi et al. [30] examined the relationship between metacognitive learning
strategies, goal orientation, and test-anxiety in terms of some variables such as gen-
der, age and faculty. A sample of 335 male and female university students filled out a
questionnaire which consisted of items on goal orientation, test anxiety and metacog-
nitive learning strategies. The metacognitive strategies consist of:
• Planning strategies: Set goals for learning and studying. Predict the time required
to study. Define the appropriate speed of studying. Analyze the way of dealing
with the learning subject, select useful learning strategies.
• Monitoring and control strategies: Supervise the learning progress, monitor the
attention when reading, ask questions when studying.
• Regulation strategies and regulatory activities: Be flexible, change the learning
strategy if necessary. Recognize and resolve ineffective cognitive strategies.
From the data, it is apparent that while there is a significant positive relationship
between metacognitive learning strategies and goal orientation, there is, at the same
time, a significant negative relationship between the aforementioned dimensions and
test anxiety. These results indicate that metacognitive learning strategies and goal
orientation comprise contributory factors to the reduction of test anxiety. Another
12 http://www.i-joe.org
10. Paper—A Journey into the Metacognitive Learning Strategies
important finding was that female students were more anxious. However, the results
showed no significant difference between goal orientation means scores in terms of
sex. Finally, no significant difference was found between the mean values of goal
orientation and test anxiety in terms of faculty and student age.
Partanen et al. [31] examined the significance of using metacognitive strategy
training in the rise of working memory’s training optimization in children with special
educational needs. After selecting and dividing forty primary school children with
lower performance in auditory WM, arithmetic, reading and writing skills into two
groups, the control and experimental. Both groups were applied a computer-based
working memory training program including visuospatial and auditory memory tasks,
forward and backward WM processing and various distractors. The experimental
group received an additional metacognitive strategy training as follows:
• Labeling: Label the central objects and elements in the tasks so as to establish a
common language and facilitate effective cognitive processing of information.
• Goal formation: Formulate the goal of the specific WM training task, to identify
the strategy.
• Cognitive strategies: Identify and formulate strategies for both success and failure
on the task.
• Planning and metacognitive strategies: Share and summarize important planning
and strategies to self-monitor during training.
• Transfer: Reflect on the relation between the tasks in the WM training and situa-
tions outside training context, to facilitate transfer to areas of school learning or
leisure time.
The results obtained from the analysis revealed a significant difference in working
memory performance, especially to the visuospatial tasks, during training in favor of
the metacognitive intervention. However, no increase in cognitive abilities or to the
school-related skills associated with the intervention was found. More research needs
to be undertaken in designing educational interventions based on metacognitive strat-
egies and working memory training.
Adedipe et al. [32] made a descriptive survey focused on the awareness of basical-
ly English as Second Language students in comprehending their academic materials
though the application of metacognitive strategies. For that reason, 120 secondary
students filled in a metacognitive reading strategies questionnaire. The descriptive
analysis which examines the extent to which students are aware of metacognitive
strategies include the following items:
• Skimming
• Scanning
• Questioning
• Inference
• Verifying
• Prediction
• Monitoring
• Summarizing

• Visualizing
The questionnaire that analyses the extent to which students apply metacognitive
strategies in reading and comprehension concentrates on:
• Seeking help while reading about the words’ meaning
• Adjustment of the reading rate to the reading material
• Paraphrasing text information while reading
• Getting the meaning instantly
• Remembering what have been read.
Data showed that over 60% of the students were aware of various metacognitive
strategies and apply these strategies in a reasonable extent. Adedipe concluded that
students need more metacognitive strategy training to perform better in examinations
and to be more efficient.
Thompson et al. [33] examined the influence of a combined intervention including
neurofeedback and metacognitive learning strategies training on students with Atten-
tion Deficit Disorder. For this purpose, 111 participants of whom 98 children and 13
adults attended forty 50-min sessions twice a week receiving neurofeedback, so as to
control attributes of brain wave activity. When the feedback indicated that the partici-
pant was focused, metacognitive strategies were taught. The kinds of strategies taught
included:
• Word analysis skills for decoding
• Active reading strategies
• Listening skills
• Organizational skills for making a presentation, writing a paragraph or writing an
essay
• Answering exam questions
• Tricks for times tables
• Solving word problems in math
• Organizing study time
• Creating mnemonic devices
• Preparing study notes
The above-mentioned techniques emphasized on remaining alert while listening or
studying and organizing and synthesizing material to aid recall. Although the study
was not controlled, the results associate the aforementioned intervention with general
students’ improvement in areas of intellectual and academic functioning. Further-
more, symptoms associated with ADD, for instance inattention, distractibility, impul-
sivity were regulated making an impact in listening and reading abilities. Ιt is worth
noting that adults enhanced their organizational time-management skills and their
memory, while some students ameliorated their self-esteem. The students performed
better on IQ tests and they were more reflective and verbally forthcoming. Thompson
argued that metacognitive strategies combined with neurofeedback could function
better than other interventions for ADD.

Ku et al. [34] investigated the effective use of metacognitive strategies to critical
thinking performance. For this purpose, 10 university students with different critical
thinking performances participated in 6 thinking tasks using think-aloud procedures
so as to verbalize their thoughts. A metacognitive coding scheme was developed in-
tergrading low and high-level metacognitive strategies into groups according to the
following dimensions:
• Planning: Identify procedures and requirements of a task. Be aware of the need for
planning (low-level strategies). Specify planning actions (high-level strategies).
• Monitoring: Check the understanding/lack of understanding (low level). Discrimi-
nate important or ambiguous information (high level).
• Evaluating: Make a conscious examination of task’s improvement (low-level).
Revise the thoughts (high-level).
A positive correlation was found between good critical thinkers and high-level
metacognitive strategy use. Specifically, high performers were efficient at planning
for specific steps, in thinking and revising their task approach after determining prob-
lems.
Yang et al. [35] made an in-depth study of metacognitive strategy use to six Chi-
nese Ph.D. students of social sciences in Australian universities. The main process
consisted of three stages of interviews the last of which focused on the use of meta-
cognitive strategies. Participants mentioned a variety of metacognitive strategies
which were divided into the following categories:
• Planning: Advance planning, goal setting, establishing priorities.
• Self-monitoring: Checking the effectiveness and/or efficiency of one’s learning,
self-reflecting.
• Self-evaluating: Identifying strengths and weaknesses, judging consciously the
quality of one’s self as a researcher.
The analysis revealed that Ph.D. candidates made use of all the major categories of
metacognitive strategies and were able to better manage their studies. Yang concluded
on the critical role of metacognitive strategy use in the timely completion of doctoral
theses as well as in self-confidence and sophistication.
Pei-Lan-Lei et al. [36] investigated the effect of the students’ metacognitive strate-
gies and verbal-imagery cognitive style on their video research behavior, search and
learning performance. For this purpose, 100 Taiwanese fifth graders were asked to
search for videos related to natural science teaching materials using video search
engines. Students’ effectiveness was evaluated according to Brown’s perspectives [3]
on metacognitive strategies as follows:
• Planning a search and understand the search tasks: Understand the video con-
tent first by using the information on the search engine interface. Save time by se-
lecting videos with detailed descriptions and more explicit metadata information.
Reduce keywords in the search process.
• Monitoring progress: Enter keywords. Search for videos with summaries and
understand the video content before watching it.
iJOE ‒ Vol. 15, No. 14, 2019 15
13. Paper—A Journey into the Metacognitive Learning Strategies
• Evaluating the search results: Compare and select relevant videos. Be cautious in
assessing the keywords before searching for videos, to avoid changing in searching
strategies.
The results revealed that metacognitive strategies comprise the primary influencer
of users’ video research behaviors and performances. Specifically, students with bet-
ter planning and evaluating strategies were more conscious about the processes and
achieved higher learning performance. It can thus be suggested that the implementa-
tion of the metacognitive learning strategies in web information retrieval processes
could help students become autonomous learners.
Ghaith et al. [37] researched the interplay of metacognitive strategies and higher-
order reading comprehension. In the present study, 119 tenth grade learners of English
as a foreign language were examined by the Survey of Reading Strategies (SORS)
that included the following metacognitive strategies:
• Global reading strategies: Prepare the reading act by selecting what to read or
ignore, noticing text characteristics, guessing what the material is about.
• Problem-solving strategies: Repair strategies used in comprehension problems
that involve re-reading. Return to a previous section when losing concentration,
taking a pause and thinking about reading, reading aloud, visualizing information.
• Support reading strategies: Support responses to reading by underlining or cir-
cling information, paraphrasing for more understanding, going back and forth in
the text, note-taking and annotating.
The statistical analysis of the data revealed that the problem-solving strategies not
only surpass in frequency the other abovementioned strategies but also function as a
predictor of both literal and higher-order comprehension. Ghaith recommended using
the problem-solving metacognitive strategies as a mechanism for developing intellec-
tual knowledge and making conscious efforts to monitor and control their reading
outcomes.
Panahandeh et al. [38] investigated the effect of metacognitive strategies on argu-
mentative writing accuracy. For this purpose, sixty EFL learners were divided into
two groups, a control and an experimental group. The last-mentioned group received
metacognitive strategy training based on O’Malley and Chamot’s model [39] focusing
on planning and monitoring:
• Planning: Advance organizing, directed attention, self-management, functional
planning.
• Monitoring: Monitoring of comprehension and production, auditory, visual, styl-
ing, plan and double-checking monitoring.
• Evaluating: Evaluation of production, performance, ability, strategy, and lan-
guage.
The present study revealed that the experimental group not only was aware of met-
acognitive learning strategies and utilize the strategies consciously but also surpassed
the control group in writing achievement. In general, therefore, it seems that meta-
16 http://www.i-joe.org

cognitive strategies could be characterized as a predictor of English written proficien-
cy.
4 Conclusion
The scope of the current review study was to map the major metacognitive strate-
gies involved in learning and their learning impact through a journey into some repre-
sentative research studies. Unsurprisingly, the findings showed that metacognitive
strategies enhance learners’ academic achievement, self-confidence and raise self-
awareness. Moreover, it was revealed a significant co-occurrence of the metacognitive
strategies and high-level cognitive functions such as reasoning, critical thinking and
problem-solving. As far as the classification of strategies concerned, despite some
different approaches, most researchers look upon the metacognitive strategies as self-
monitoring’s, adaptation’s and self-regulation’s (or executive functions’) builders.
The results of this study support the idea that metacognitive strategies bind cognitive
and metacognitive abilities together into a comprehensive simultaneous whole, in-
creasing visibility of the true self of knowledge in a unified universe. Imagine meta-
cognition like a tunnel (such as tunnel of time) and metacognitive strategies like the
vehicle which could unveil countless and possible paths with the same destination: the
stream of consciousness. This stream of luminosity becomes gradually visible as peo-
ple make a journey in new, alternative or more trodden paths and climb the ladder of
knowledge, bridging information gaps in a meaningful whole. The stages of con-
sciousness we could experience coincide with the evolution of the counterpart meta-
cognitive strategy levels. The above-mentioned point of view was inspired also from
Drigas’ [40], [41] eight-layer model of “Consciousness-Intelligence-Knowledge” and
nine-layer model of giftedness. Future research could forge a universal metacognitive
strategy model in accordance with the aforementioned knowledge-consciousness
models.
