Metacognition is a hugely powerful pedagogy. In fact, it is the highest rated impact that EEF have researched. Beyond this, it is also a key part of ITT and high-quality CPD, as defined by OFSTED. However, it is quite a complex theory, and often ignored by schools and teachers alike.
This session will look to address these difficulties, by presenting a number of high-quality metacognitive strategies which can be introduced quickly and successfully into the STEM classroom.
These strategies build from work undertaken with OUP, around the ideas of planning, monitoring and evaluation. No teacher will leave this session without new or improved strategies that they can instantly introduce into their classroom.
