1. Prepare your own plan on how you can apply metacognition to improve your study skills.

After knowing metacognition on learning is definitely a big help for an aspiring teacher like me. Since I
was taking up an education course, maybe it’s time to change my studying technique which is metacognition. I
will not just be studying my lesson but to learn to remember for the long term. For me to learn more, I will use
metacognition to remember what I learned, making connections and truly understanding it. In the end, I can
now create my own concepts. I will start by thinking about my way of thinking, how I learn, how I think and how
I should think to better my learning.
Since learning is made digitally today, it is not enough to just read, memorize or conceptualize
something. I have to learn the ‘why’ and the ‘how’ behind everything. It takes time, effort, practice and an
awareness to improve knowledge to a new context.
In order for me to do it, I think I will need the following steps in achieving my goals to better my learning
skills:
● Identify or spot any concept that I want to learn
● Planning. In this step it is important to put away any distractions
As a mother with a lot of work at home, I need to manage my time well for my family and for my
lessons.
● Know my strengths and weaknesses. The things that I know & I don’t know in order to assess
myself over concepts that I want to learn.
● Ask question or self-questioning in able to adapt my learning strategy
In this step, I can change the way I think by collecting data from my assessment on questions.
Then, focus on questions that I got wrong then take a deeper question why
I get it wrong.
● Lastly, is to evolve or improve my learning and see to it that my knowledge will grow in order to
remember it.
For this step to be successful, I need to consider the basic questions to ask myself before, during, and
after studying to attend to the decisions that can make a difference in my performance. I will use my time to
recall, analyze, interpret, and apply information which helps improve my study skills.
 Before Learning While Learning
Take Time to Plan: Pause to Monitor:
After Learning
● What am I supposed ● How am I doing? Reflect and Evaluate:

● What strategies plan?
● Did I achieve my goals?
should I use? ● Do I understand what
● What could I have done
● How much time do I I’m learning?

don’t understand

Answers to these questions may not come quickly but they can create an opportunity to change how to
approach my goals when things aren’t working out the way I want them. As a learner, I must contend with my
personal strengths and weaknesses, the nature of the task, and the strategies available to accomplish and
overcome any challenges.
To put it simply, first, I need to plan my approach to a learning topic, especially how I will digest the
information. Then, monitor my comprehension of the topic as I study with actions such as practice tests.
Finally, evaluate the results of my learning when I finish and modify my approach as needed.
This simple step of learning and practicing metacognition means, that I will be my best indicator for
whether I am prepared for a test/learning or not, the same time this will help prepare myself for more effective
learning in the future because I will be able to make the best choices when my materials and teachers don't
deliver what I need.
