In this context, "metacognition" seems to be an education buzzword for a particular approach to optimizing learning. The stuff being talked about here is neither the same thing as epistemology nor immediately obvious from the broader meaning and uses of "metacognition".
- avs733 5y agoits...okay maybe it's a buzzword but it isn't about 'optimized learning' its about valuing the development of a process of learning equally to the content of learning. It has become a focus because teach to the test has done a damn good job of stripping it away from K-12 classroom learning in the US. Now that we realize whats missing ed researchers talk about it more and how to add it back.
