Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to provide significant evidence from the literature for the use of emerging methods to study engineering students' use of metacognitive strategies when studying. We will review current research methods used to study metacognition and provide evidence that observational methods are an appropriate methodological choice when attempting to study the actual metacognitive strategies students engage in when in naturalistic settings.
