Reflection on Results of Metacognitive Awareness Inventory

Knowledge about Cognition

In Declarative Knowledge, I got a total score of 7 over 8 because of the fact that I learn
more whenever I’m interested in the topic. I am able to understand my intellectual
strengths as well as my intellectual weaknesses, and I am able to determine what kind
of information I want to learn. Also, I am good at organizing and remembering
information. On the other hand, I don’t know what my teacher expect me to learn
because I think that I can learn in every information so I don’t need to worry about what
my teacher expect me to learn.

In Procedural Knowledge, I got a perfect score of 4. I think the reason why I got a
perfect score is that I tend to use different strategies in different learning situations to be
able to understand more the information.

Also, I got a perfect score of 5 in Conditional Knowledge because I know when to use
my strategy in most effective way. I use my strengths to overcome my weaknesses, and
I can motivate myself to learn whenever I lost my will to learn.

Regulation of Cognition

I only got 4 over 7 in Planning. I am good at planning but I need to learn more about
pacing myself while learning in order to have enough time, asking questions to myself
before I begin, and think of several solutions to solve the problem.

In Information Management Strategies, I got a score of 8 over 10. I need to learn more
about creating my own example to understand more the topic or information, and
drawing pictures or diagram that will help me to understand while learning.

In Comprehension Monitoring, I only got 4 over 7 because I am not good in considering

different solutions in solving a problem. Also, I don’t periodically review to understand
more the information.
I got a perfect score of 5 in Debugging Strategies because I am good at correcting my
own errors. And I tend to always double check my work or understanding before
proceeding to the next topic.

Lastly, I got a score of 4 over 6 in Evaluation. I evaluate myself a lot, but I don’t usually
ask myself if there is an easier way to do things after I finish the task, and if I have
consider all the options in solving the particular problem.

All in all, I got a score of 41 over 52. I am happy and satisfied on the scores I get
because I realize that I still have a room for my own improvements. I just need to be
patient and work harder to achieve what I want to achieve.
