100
True or false: the more you know about thinking and learning, and the more deliberate you are in choices, the more productive your learning will be
What is true.
100
What is the definition of transfer?
What is knowledge and skills being used and applied in other situations.
100
What is self-regulation?
What is process of taking control of, monitoring, and evaluating one's own learning and behavior.
100
How learners encode a problem or situation influences their strategies and eventual success
What is encoding.
100
What is the definition of critical thinking?
What is evaluating accuracy, credibility, and worth of information.
200
The definition of metacognition is
What is "thinking about thinking." Metacognition includes learners' knowledge and beliefs about their own cognitive processes.
200
Prior knowledge that hinders learning is?
What is negative transfer.
200
True or false: most learners become increasingly self-regulating over the course of childhood and adolescence, partly as a result of maturation in key areas of the brain.
What is true.
200
What is creativity?
What is new and original behavior yielding a product appropriate for and valuable to one's culture.
200
Critical thinking requires sophisticated _______ beliefs.
What is epistemic.
300
What is the first general principle of metacognition?
What is "if you observe any learner, you'll see some effective study strategies."
300
Prior knowledge that helps learning is?
What is positive transfer.
300
Self-regulating learners establish _______ for their performance and plan their actions accordingly.
What is goals.
300
What is problem solving?
What is using previous knowledge to address a question or situation.
300
General inclination to approach and think about learning and problem-solving tasks in a particular way.
What is disposition.
400
True or false: study strategies aren't effective if they only involve productive cognitive processes
What is false. Study strategies ARE effective only if they involve productive cognitive processes. For example, you can go every day for a month to a quiet place to study, but if you're not actually paying attention to and encoding the information, you won't remember it.
400
Meaningful learning and conceptual understanding ______ the probability of transfer.
What is increase.
400
During a learning task, self-regulating learners control and monitor their?
What is processes and progress.
400
A sequence of steps that guarantees a correct problem solution.
What is algorithm.
400
What is verbal reasoning?
What is understanding and evaluating on persuasive techniques, both in oral and written circumstances.
500
What are epistemic beliefs (or epistemological beliefs?)
What is beliefs about the nature of knowledge and learning.
500
Transfer of knowledge and skills happens more often when there is obvious similarity between what?
What is between the "old" and "new" situation.
500
Self-regulating learners __________ consequences for their performance.
What is self-improve.
500
Strategies that facilitate problem solving or creativity but don't always yield a successful outcome.
What is heuristics.
500
What is argument analysis?
What is discriminating between reasons that do and do not support a conclusion.
