Understand what metacognition is and how you can apply it to your
secondary school teaching to support deep and effective learning in your
classroom.
Metacognition is a popular topic in teaching and learning debates, but
it's rarely clearly defined and can be difficult for teachers to
understand how it can be applied in the classroom. This book offers a
clear introduction to applying metacognition in secondary teaching,
exploring the 'what', 'when/how' and 'why' of using metacognition in
classrooms with real life examples of how this works in practice.
This is a detailed and accessible resource that offers guidance that
teachers can start applying to their own lesson planning immediately,
across secondary subjects.
