Metacognition is a complex skill, but to put it simply, metacognition is the ability to THINK about THINKING. The ability to do this appears around middle childhood, and can be improved through practice. Why is it important to be able to think about thinking? For students, being able to do this allows them to identify what they know and what they don’t know by themselves rather than relying on an external source (teachers, tutors, tests, etc.) to inform them. This empowers students to become more successful learners! ✨
