No 18 [Bitesize Activities] Awareness Raising Activities

  • Summary

  • Planning what to teach and teaching it often isn't enough for our students. You might baulk at that statement - us teachers are busy enough!

    That's true. But nevertheless, we might not be doing right by our students if we don't also train them in the strategies required for effective and efficient language learning. 

    However, even that might not be enough ..

    Students need also to be aware of what, how, and why they are doing what they're doing. 

    Metacognition refers to the process of thinking about one's thinking, and it is this that we need to help the students to develop in order for them to be better able to self-regulate their actions.
