This document discusses metacognition and learner-centered psychological principles. It defines metacognition as awareness and understanding of one's own thinking and learning processes. There are three categories of metacognitive knowledge: knowledge of person variables, task variables, and strategy variables. The document also outlines 14 learner-centered psychological principles grouped into cognitive/metacognitive, motivational/affective, developmental/social, and individual differences factors that influence learning. Effective learners employ metacognitive strategies like self-monitoring to facilitate knowledge construction.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

3. “If you teach a person what to learn, you are
preparing that person for the past.
If you teach a person how to learn, you are
preparing for the future.”
- Cyril houle
4. METACOGNITION
• Awareness or analysis of one’s own learning or
thinking process.
• “Thinking about thinking” or “learning how to learn”
• Acquired knowledge about cognitive process.
• This term was coined by John Flavell(1979-1987)
6. KNOWLEDGE OF PERSON VARIABLES
• Knowledge about how human beings learn and
process information.
• For example, studying early in the morning and
late at night.
• Working better in a quiet library rather than at
home where there are lot of things that make it
hard for you to focus and concentrate.
7. KNOWLEDGE OF TASK VARIABLES
• Knowledge about the nature of task.
• It is about knowing what exactly needs to be
accomplished, gauging its difficulty and knowing
the kind of effort it will demand for you.
• For example, being aware that you take more time
in reading a book in educational philosophy than
reading a novel.
8. KNOWLEDGE OF STRATEGY VARIABLES
• Involves awareness of the strategy you are using
to learn a topic.
• Meta-attention is the awareness of specific
strategies so that you can keep your attention
focused on the topic or task at hand.
• Meta-memory is your awareness of specific
strategies that work best for you.
9. Omrod, includes the following in the practice of
metacognition:
• Knowing the limits of one’s own learning and memory
capacities.
• Knowing what learning tasks one can realistically accomplish
within a certain amount of time.
• Knowing which learning strategies are effective and which
are not.
• Planning an approach to a learning task that is likely to be
successful.
10. • Using effective learning strategies to process and
learn new material.
• Monitoring one’s own knowledge and
comprehension.
• Using effective strategies for retrieval of
previously stored information.
• Knowledge is said to be metacognitive if it is
keenly used in a purposeful manner to ensure
that a goal is met.
11. Huitt believes that metacognition includes the ability to ask
and answer the following types of questions:
• What do I know about this subject, topic, issue?
• Do I know what I need to know?
• Do I know where I can go to get some information, knowledge?
• How much time will I need to learn this?
• What are some strategies and tactics that I can use to learn this?
• Did I understand what I just heard, read or saw?
• How will I know if I am learning at an appropriate topic?
• How can I spot an error if I make one?
• How should I revise my plan if it is not.
13. SOME EXAMPLES OF TEACHING STRATEGIES TO
DEVELOP METACOGNITION:
1. Have students monitor their own learning and
thinking.
2.Teach students study or learning strategies.
• TQLR – it is a metacognitive strategy before
listening to a story or a presentation.
• PQ4R – this strategy is used in a study of a unit or
chapter.
14. T - TUNE IN
- It is first important for the learner himself to be aware that
he is paying attention, and that he is ready to learn.
Q – QUESTION
- the learner is given questions or he thinks of questions
about what he will soon learn.
L – LISTEN
- the learner exerts effort to listen.
R – REMEMBER
- the learner uses ways or strategies to remember what was
learned.
15. P – PREVIEW
• Scan the whole chapter before delving in each paragraph
Q – QUESTION
• Read the guide question provided, or think of your own questions about the
topic.
R – READ
• Check out sub headings as you read. Find out the meaning of words that are not
clear to you.
R – RECITE
• Work on answering the questions you had earlier.
R – REVIEW
• Pinpoint topics you may need to go back and read in order to understand better.
R – REFLECT
• Think about what you read.
16. 3. Have students make predictions about information
to be presented next based on what they have read.
4. Have students relate ideas to existing knowledge
structures.
5. Have students develop questions; ask question of
themselves, about what’s going on around them.
6. Help students to know when to ask for help.
7. Show students how to know when to transfer
knowledge, attitudes, values, skills to other situations
of tasks.
17. NOVICE AND EXPERT LEARNERS
Novice Learners
• A person who has just started learning or doing
something.
Expert Learners
• Employed metacognitive strategies in learning.
• Monitored their learning and consequently adjusted
their strategies to make learning more effective.
18. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NOVICE AND
EXPERT LEARNERS
• Knowledge in different subject areas
• Problem Solving
• Learning/thinking strategies
• Selectivity in processing
• Production of output
20. LEARNER-CENTERED
PSYCHOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES
• The LCP were put together by the American Psychological
Association. The following 14 psychological principles pertain to
the learner and the earning process.
• The 14 principles are divided into those referring to:
- Cognitive and metacognitive
- Motivational and affective
- Developmental and social
- Individual difference factors
21. COGNITIVE AND METACOGNITIVE
FACTORS
1. Nature of Learning Process
• the learning of complex subject matter is most effective when it is
an international process of constructing meaning from information
and experience.
2. Goals of the Learning Process
• the successful learner, over time and with support and
instructional guidance, can create meaningful, coherent
representations of knowledge.
22. 3. Construction of Knowledge
• the successful learner can link new information with existing
knowledge in meaningful ways.
• Knowledge widens and deepens as students continue to build
links between new information and experiences and their
existing knowledge base.
4. Strategic Thinking
• the successful learner can create and use a repertoire of
thinking and reasoning strategies to achieve complex learning
goals.
• Successful learners use in their approach to learning reasoning,
problem solving, and concept learning.
23. 5. Thinking about thinking
• Successful learners can reflect on how they think and
learn, set reasonable learning or performances goals,
select potentially appropriate learning strategies or
methods, and monitor their progress towards these
goals.
6. Context of Learning
• Learning is influenced by environmental factors,
including culture, technology and instructional
practices.
24. MOTIVATIONAL AND AFFECTIVE
FACTORS
7. Motivational and emotional influences on learning
• the rich internal world of thoughts, beliefs, goals, and expectation for success or failure
can enhance or interfere with the learner’s quality of thinking and information
processing.
8. Intrinsic motivation to learn
• Intrinsic motivation is stimulated by tasks of optimal novelty and difficulty, relevant to
personal interests, and providing for personal choice and control.
9. Effects of motivation on effort
• Effort is another major indicator of motivation to learn. The acquisition of complex
knowledge and skills demands the investment of considerable learner energy and
strategic effort, along with persistence over time.
25. DEVELOPMENTAL AND SOCIAL
FACTORS
10. Developmental influences on learning
• learning is most effective when differential developmental within and across
physical, intellectual, emotional, and social domains is taken into account.
• Individuals learn best when material is appropriate to their developmental level
and is presented in an enjoyable and interesting way.
11. Social influence on learning
• Learning can be enhanced when the learner has an opportunity to interact and
to collaborate with others on instructional tasks.
26. INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES FACTORS
12. Individual differences in learning
• Individuals are born with and develop their own capabilities and talents.
• Educators need to help students examine their learning preferences and expand or modify
them, if necessary.
13. Learning and diversity
• the same basic principles of learning, motivation, and effective instruction apply to all
learners.
14. Standards and assessment
• Assessment provides important information to both the learner and teacher at all stages of the
learning process.
27. Alexander and Murphy gave a summary of the 14
principles and distilled them into five areas:
1. The knowledge base
• One’s knowledge serves as the foundation of all future learning.
2. Strategic processing and control
• Learners can develop skills to reflect and regulate their thoughts and behaviors
in order to learn more effectively.
3. Motivation and affect
• Factors such as intrinsic motivation, reasons for wanting to learn, personal goals
and enjoyment of learning tasks all have a crucial role in the learning process.
28. 4. Development and Individual Differences
• Learning is a unique journey for each person
because each learner has his own unique
combination of genetic and environmental
factors that influence him.
5. Situation or context
• Learning happens in the context of a society as
well as within an individual.
