Metacognition is basically thinking about your thinking or knowing about knowing. Metacognition can be used in different situations, like discussing in a group, or having a fight with your parents. I have been using metacognition, without noticing, because i've never thought of a word for thinking about your thinking. There are 2 strategies to metacognition; metacognition conversation and think aloud. Sometimes when i do work, i say my words out loud so that i can do my work clearer. When i use these strategies, it helps me think quicker and faster. For example if you were to make a clay animal, and you use think aloud, saying what you are going to do, will help you complete a lot faster. This strategy helps you become more aware of your own knowledge and our ability to understand, control, and manipulate our own thinking processes.
