Metacognitive Awareness Inventory Case Study

140 Words1 Page

The researcher will adopt the survey on Jr. Metacognitive Awareness Inventory which originally proposed by Sperling, Howard, Miller, and Murphy. It consists of 18 statements to which participants respond by marking a Likert scale with numbers from 1 (“never”) to 5 (“always”). Average completion time is approximately twenty minutes. The Jr. MAI statements represent two component categories of metacognition, metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive regulation. Within the knowledge component are statements of declarative knowledge (knowledge about self and strategies), procedural knowledge (knowledge about strategy use), and conditional knowledge (when and why to use strategies). The regulation component covered planning (goal setting), information

    Our five senses –sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch help the ways in which we perceive the world around us. And while they seem to work independently at time they can effect each other and the way we comprehend something. Seeing something pretty, touching something soft, eating something cold and smelling something rotten are the sense we use to connect with the world around us and will all effect how we move forward in that situation. When you look at the top picture say the color of the word not the word itself. It is harder than it seems and takes a little practice to do it efficiently. It is because we see the spelling we were taught not the color it was written in. It is hard to process it the other way, but not impossible. Take the bottom picture for another example is this a

  • Awareness Skills Assessment: The Raus And The Woodcock Johnson Tests

    In the, The RAIS and the Woodcock Johnson Tests, is used to measure a person’s basic intelligence. The test is shown that it only takes about thirty-five minutes based on who is administering the test and how the person receives the information. The test is split into four sections which consists of “Verbal intelligence index (VIX), a nonverbal intelligence index (NIX), a composite intelligence index (CIX), and the composite memory index (CMX)” (Sandhu, 2016). These all work together in the test to end with the final score or result. This will also demonstrate that of verbal intelligence. There are both nonverbal and verbal section within the test and the test can’t be done using the pencil and paper but has to involve the people giving it to the individual (Sandhu, 2016). I find this particular assessment/test to be useful as well in the classroom to help in aiding both the student and the teacher on skills both nonverbal and verbal based upon the student’s intelligence.

    Objective self-awareness theory has undergone fundamental changes in the 3 decades since Duval and Wicklund 's (1972) original formulation. We review new evidence that bears on the basic tenets of the theory. Many of the assumptions of self-awareness theory require revision, particularly how expectancies influence approach and avoidance of self-standard discrepancies; the nature of standards, especially when they are changed; and the role of causal attribution in directing discrepancy reduction. However, several unresolved conceptual issues remain; future theoretical and empirical directions are discussed.

    “Self-concept consists of knowledge, views and evaluation of the self, ranging from miscellaneous facts of personal history to the identity that gives a sense of purpose and coherence to life” (McCrae and Costa, 1996). With self-concept, we learn who we are by observing ourselves and using our cognitive processes to judge and evaluate our behaviour. However, with self-regulation, we are able to use this knowledge and judgment and apply it to future situations and so predicts behaviour and says a lot about our personality. If we are willing to cognitively analyse past situations and apply it effectively to future situations, this means we are changing our behaviour, thus changing our

  • Metacognition And Multiple Intelligence Essay Examples

    We were taught in elementary school that if we study then well do perfect on tests, the only problem is we were never really taught how to study the ways that benefits us best. We were never taught what methods of studying help you on tests and how to make the material stick in your mind so you won’t just forget. That’s why the study of metacognition and multiple intelligence is now being used in classrooms and at home to better prepare the student for upcoming tests. Metacognition is being able to take charge, be aware and understand your own learning and thought process. Multiple intelligence is the theory that people aren’t born dumb but that they have naturally inherited sections of intelligence that aren’t realized in the brains of everyone.

    This part will firstly present something about social cognitive theory because it is the more general framework behind the self-efficacy theory. Social cognitive theory is a view of human functioning focusing on human agency (Bandura, 2001) and a way to understand “human cognition, action, motivation, and emotion that assumes that people are capable of self-reflection and self-regulation.” (Maddux, 1995, p. 4)

  • Self Awareness Assessment

    2256 Words  | 5 Pages

    Two strengths I learned during my Self Awareness assessment were being a good listener and showing loyalty. I really try to be a good listener in all situations. I like to hear the whole story or complete process in whatever it may be. I am cautious about making decisions without having all the details. I don't mind taking the time out to get the details. Yes, it may take some time up front and may not lead to a quick decision but in the long run it prevents mistakes and errors as well as misjudging which can lead to more heartache and pain down the road. Loyalty is also very important to me in the work center. Knowing that you are devoted and committed to the success of the organization will motivate your people to do the same. They also need to know that they can come to you with a problem whether it is personal or work related. This will allow them to be more open to bringing problems to your attention that could later have a disastrous effect on the organization in the future. Both pers...

  • Outcome Expectancy And Self-Efficacy Theory

    409 Words  | 1 Pages

    Outcome expectancy and self-efficacy are two important concepts within the socio-cognitive learning theory. While both were devised by Albert Bandura, Williams decided to revisit the theories in order to examine the contradiction posed within these concepts (2010). According to the author, while Bandura stated that self-efficacy influence outcome expectancy without the reverse direction, several studies showed the opposite fact. Thus, it is important to analyze the self-efficacy theory regarding its relationship with outcome expectancy. The study first explained the definition of self-efficacy as the perception of a person on his or her capability on performing a behavior. The theory explicitly presented that self-efficacy is not concern with the real capability, but rather the capability the

    A good understanding of one’s own metacognition is necessary before aiming to understand that of other people. This is referred to as intrapersonal perception. Self-regulation, which involves self-monitoring and self-motivation, is an essential skill required to achieve academic success at university. It focuses on the concept of individuals being able to accurately judge their level of knowledge and determine the effectiveness of methods implemented for exam preparation. This allows evaluation of strengths and weaknesses, enabling individuals to engage in focused study. Students who can effectively do this will excel in their time at university. Conversely, those who lack in this skill can have major implications, such as overestimating their knowledge, thus hindering their success. Debra A. Bercher’s findings sugg...

    As a person grows old, it is inevitable to have both physical and cognitive changes happen throughout their lifetime. In an average life span, a person’s physical and cognitive changes will normally vary depending on what age group they are in. For example, it is said that from birth to age five, a child will absorb more information including how to talk, language, form relationships, and fine motor skills than any other age. It is also said that that most rapid decline in physical ability is in older adults ranging from a loss in eyesight to severe dementia.
