This download contains ten ICT Suite (Computer Room) learning sessions that are suitable for 1-hour teaching periods: they can be used by teachers of any subject working with students aged 11-16. Each session is a fully-resourced ‘zero prep’ lesson that encourages a high degree of learning autonomy and independence. We’ve taken a tried and tested lesson structure and connected it to our specialist topics: metacognition and self-regulated learning. Using a worksheet for guidance (and eventually peer-assessment) students spend the first 35-40 minutes of the lesson creating a presentation and the remainder of the session showing it to their peers and assessing one another’s work. The download includes PowerPoint instructions as well as a set of ten different worksheets which refer to different aspects of metacognition and self-regulated learning: five of the worksheets are teachers who wish for students to work in pairs and the other five are for solo work. The worksheets include a number of different topics for students to choose from – we wanted to bring autonomous learning into the design of this product and providing learners with options in these sessions is a way of empowering greater levels of autonomy. Aside from exploring important pedagogical topics (such as metacognition, independent learning, study skills, revision strategies and self-regulated learning) the presentations encourage students to connect these concepts to their own learning journeys: thus fostering metacognitive awareness and metacognitive knowledge. Aside from fostering these self-regulation and metacognitive skills, this approach to learning also helps to develop research skills, technical skills in relation to presentation design, and presentation delivery skills. The topics covered by the different worksheets are as follows: Metacognition (Solo Work) ‘How to Boost Learning in This Subject’(Solo Work) Revision Techniques & Revision Strategies (Solo Work) ‘Understanding How I Learn Best’ (Solo Work) ‘Boosting My Learning Power’ (Solo Work) ‘How To Succeed in This Subject’ (Paired Work) Being An Independent Learner (Paired Work) Revision Resources, Tips & Tricks (Paired Work) Metacognition & Self-Regulated Learning (Paired Work) Studying Skills (Paired Work) Some of the worksheets refer to subject specific reflections (e.g. #2) whilst others refer to more general metacognitive reflections and knowledge (e.g. #9). The worksheets include an integrated self-assessment system. Each worksheet uses the same basic structure and design, the worksheets cover different topics/options and can be used over time so that students improve each time they engage with the process. Since the worksheets (and PowerPoint files) are editable teachers can adjust contents to more precisely meet their students’ needs.

If you are using a video or documentary in your lessons then this is an ideal way of using metacognition to help students get more from it. This resource uses metacognitive questioning to enhance learning when students are watching educational videos or documentaries in lessons. It is suitable for teachers of all subjects and is applicable to video-learning activities on any topic: it should be used to enhance metacognition when students are learning from a video or documentary in lessons. Using the resource is easy: the PowerPoint contains numerous prompts, each with three metacognitive questions. Questions for before, during and after the video are clearly distinguished and the integrated menu allows you to switch to the different sections of the metacognitive process with ease. Simply show one set of questions to students before starting the video, one set of questions during a mid-point plenary, and one afterwards. The questions deal with a wide variety of different topics in relation metacognition and self-regulated learning: they aim to trigger student reflection on their own engagement with the learning process, thus allowing them to plan, monitor, evaluate and regulate their learning more effectively.

This download includes student reflection worksheets for the start, middle, and end of each term. The download includes nine worksheets: three for each term, covering an entire school year. This product features three different worksheet formats. Each of these colourful double-sided worksheets encourages students to engage in metacognition and self-regulated learning: At the start of each term these worksheets encourage students to reflect on how the previous term went, how they have prepared for the new term, how they can improve their learning strategies, and how they can plan for success in the new term - anticipating challenges ahead. The mid-term reflection worksheets encourage students to monitor progress, evaluate current approaches to learning, identify obstacles and reflect on how to overcome them, and anticipate the requirements of end-of-term assessments. The end-of-term reflection worksheets help students to reflect on how the term went, the progress they have made, the quantity and quality of their learning, the strengths and weaknesses in their approaches to learning, how they can improve moving forward, and how they might be best prepared for the next term. The worksheets emphasise target-setting at each stage and engage students in the self-regulated learning cycle (of planning, monitoring, evaluating, and regulating their approaches to learning. The download includes easy-print .pdf versions of the worksheets as well as editable .doc (Microsoft Word) versions in-case you need to customise them for your students.

**This download includes over twenty worksheets & printables that focus on target-setting! ** The download includes: 6 x full-page double-sided worksheets 6 x half-page folding worksheets 6 x half-side mini worksheets 6 x small target-setting printables (e.g. 8/page) The download includes editable .doc and easy-print .pdf formats of the worksheets. Target-Setting, Metacognition & Self-Regulate Learning Target-setting in the classroom can help to boost metacognition and self-regulated learning by providing students with clear goals and objectives that they can work towards. When students have a clear understanding of what they are working towards, they are more likely to engage in self-regulated learning behaviors such as planning, monitoring, and evaluating their own learning progress. This can help students to develop a better understanding of their own learning processes and how they can improve their performance over time. Additionally, target-setting can help to promote metacognition by encouraging students to reflect on their own learning progress and identify areas where they need to improve. By setting targets that are challenging but achievable, students can develop a sense of ownership over their own learning and become more motivated to succeed.
