TeachTalk Webinar: Metacognition - Creating self-regulated learners

Our webinar today was facilitated by Joshua Caulkins from the School of Life Sciences at Arizona State University. The agenda included: Defining metacognition;   Identifying components of the process for metacognition;   Exploring strategies that promote metacognition Josh showed participants the Cycle of Self-Directed Learning, and had them discuss how they learned to learn. He shared multiple activities from "Promoting student metacognition" by Kimberly Tanner, PhD, that would help students learn to think about their learning. He also showed examples of how to do an "exam wrapper", that could start with a Pre-survey asking students to assess their studying and preparation for the exam.
