Metacognition
Difficulty stepping back to monitor and evaluate thinking and learning such as editing work.
Support the learner in evaluating their progress toward the intended outcome, modelling the language needed. This helps the learner reflect meaningfully and build self-assessment skills.
Provide a model answer or outcome, explicitly highlighting key details. This gives the learner a clear benchmark and helps them understand expectations.
Guide the learner in reviewing and editing their work, focusing on both the process and the final product. This encourages reflection and improvement through self-awareness.
Give specific praise about the strategies the learner used during the task. This reinforces effective approaches and builds confidence.
Ask open-ended questions to help the learner identify what helped them succeed and how they can apply those strategies in future tasks. This promotes transfer of learning and strategic thinking.
