Mastering Metacognition: Learn How to Learn and Become Your Own Teacher (Part 3 of 3: Elevating Learner Success Series)

  • Summary

  • In this episode, we explore the powerful role of metacognition in learning and education. Metacognition, or "monitoring and regulating our thought processes," is a critical skill that helps students become more aware of their learning processes, enabling them to self-regulate, improve performance, and ultimately become independent learners.

    This episode is the third and final part of a 3-part Learning and Teaching seminar series at the Australian Catholic University (Part 3 of 3): The Elevating Learning Seminar Series, presented by Dr Luke Rowe. It was originally presented at ACU on the 6th of September, 2024.

    We break down the science of metacognitive learning, share practical strategies, and offer key tips to help both students and educators implement these methods for deep and meaningful learning.
