“Oh, that makes sense”: social metacognition in small-group problem solving, Halmo Stephanie M, Bremers Emily K, Fuller Sammantha, and Stanton Julie Dangremond, CBE—Life Sciences Education, Volume 21, p.ar58 (2022)
When students collaborate they can stimulate metacognition in one another, which can lead to improved learning. Life science students were recorded during small-group problem-solving sessions. Through discourse analysis of their conversations, metacognitive statements and questions associated with high-quality reasoning were uncovered.
