Metacognition is often described as being ‘thinking about thinking,’ however, it is much more than that. There is no agreed definition of metacognition but this handy on-pager describes the different ways that metacognition can be described and highlights some of the underlying principles of metacognition. This gives a better understanding of what metacognition is and the elements which constitute towards metacognitive development. It can be printed off and used as a poster for staffroom display.

Metacognition Poster for Problem-solving

Metacognition is being aware of our thought processes through the framework of planning, monitoring and evaluating. The EEF’s Guidance on Metacognition and Self-regulation 2018 highlights the importance of teaching metacognition. Pupils can make an additional seven months progress, when metacognitive strategies are taught explicitly. Teachers utilise metacognitive strategies to varying degrees but they are not always as explicit as they could be. In the aftermath of the global pandemic, it has become even more important to focus on the pedagogy of metacognition, to help pupils who have fallen behind. Metacognitive thinking, for maths problem-solving, has been broken down into seven steps and has been designed to help develop metacognitive thinking explicitly, during the problem-solving process. It highlights what pupils should be thinking about when problem-solving. Pupils should follow the first three steps in order and after that it is not necessary to follow the steps in any order; they can go back and forth. The information on this innovative metacognitive poster is research-based and evidence-informed. It forms part of a series of posters. It can be displayed, in the classroom, as a prompt for developing metacognitive thinking.

Getting pupils involved in their own assessment is a fantastic way of giving them some autonomy over their learning. This bright superhero resource helps pupils determine whether a task was challenging enough for them. Pupils tick whether the challenge was just right, too easy or too hard at the end of the lesson.
