Η ενίσχυση της μεταγνωστικής συνειδητοποίησης των μαθητών μέσω της διδασκαλίας του μαθήματος της Οικιακής Οικονομίας.

Περίληψη

Metacognitive awareness, highly based on the skills of “knowledge of cognition” and “regulation of cognition”, is a complicated higher-rank cog¬nitive skill that enables the student to plan, monitor and evaluate his/her personal cognitive performance, through the implementation of personal
strategies for the assimilation of knowledge. The present study aims to adapt G. Schraw’s “Metacognitive Awareness Strategy” to the teaching of Home Economics and, in particular, to the schoolbook’s unit entitled “Issues on Ecology”. This strategy develops in four steps (promoting gener¬al awareness, improving knowledge of cognition, improving regulation of cognition, promoting general skills in conducive environments), each one fostering cognitive, metacognitive and socio-affective development of the student.
