For instance, they begin to:<br \/>1) Focus on mastery, rather than just performance.<br \/>2) Take on a heavier \u201ccognitive load\u201d than their teacher.<br \/>3) Establish, reflect on, and update personal goals.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a whole bunch of research that supports that the skill of metacognition boosts student learning outcomes. Here\u2019s just a few examples:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/publication\/226367707_The_Development_of_Metacognitive_Competences\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Schneider and Pressley (1989)<\/a> write that students equipped with metacognitive knowledge about reading and memory improve their uses of learning strategies. In their study, <strong>metacognition gave students the capacity to understand when and why they should use certain learning approaches.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8211; In her book \u201cFall Down 7 Times, Get Up 8, \u201c <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Fall-Down-Times-Get-Up\/dp\/1412998778\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Debbie Silver<\/a> suggests that adults model the thinking and behavior that they want to see in children. She recommends, \u201cAdults can help students learn to internalize self-regulation by modeling the behavior they want to see in children. Orally elaborating (thinking aloud) about one\u2019s choice emphasizes the conscious nature of taking control of the situation.\u201d In other words, <strong>modeling metacognitive practices helps turn the productive thinking and actions over to the learners themselves.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>How can Classtime help in developing metacognition and boost student reflection? Let\u2019s look at a few specific areas and discuss some practical strategies where it can make it happen.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Strategy 1: Mastery Development<\/strong><br \/>Classtime is an app built on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/en\/assessment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">assessment<\/a>&#8212; that means it can serve as a powerful way to develop and measure students\u2019 content &amp; skill mastery.<\/p>\n<p>In the example below, I had one of my World History classes try a duplicate question set at the beginning and then at the end of a block. Here, students&#8211;and myself&#8211;clearly can observe their mastery of some of the day\u2019s objectives (the first two) after going through the day\u2019s activities.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1226 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-5.53.21-PM-1024x633.png\" alt=\"Metacognition\" width=\"640\" height=\"396\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-5.53.21-PM-1024x633.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-5.53.21-PM-300x185.png 300w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-5.53.21-PM-768x475.png 768w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-5.53.21-PM.png 1278w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the specifics:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1227 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-5.59.57-PM-926x1024.png\" alt=\"Metacognition\" width=\"640\" height=\"708\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-5.59.57-PM-926x1024.png 926w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-5.59.57-PM-271x300.png 271w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-5.59.57-PM-768x849.png 768w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-5.59.57-PM.png 1134w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Note: <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/16b36CIcFr3wbI-GPqABPAx2jrGkXr5JI\/view?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here<\/a> to see how the lesson addressed the learning objectives that I asked students about in the warmup and exit ticket.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that Classtime in this instance simply isn\u2019t serving as just a measurement tool&#8211;<strong>it\u2019s also teaching students how to learn to discard less important information they\u2019ve encountered throughout their day and study particular material more intentionally.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Another thought too&#8211; what if you were to have students return for a period of a few weeks to a comprehensive Classtime question set?

Really, these were just to get a habit of reflective thinking started.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s some of the sets I used with them:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/share\/ff99fe0e-24e9-4ade-9052-1c55fd0426d7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Set 1 | For My Younger Students<\/strong><\/a><br \/>1.

How might family\/friends support my learning is ____.<\/p>\n<p>Whether we use tech or not to do it, just remember that <strong>empowering students to develop as thinkers shouldn\u2019t be limited to a single lesson, subject, or time of year. It\u2019s a main purpose as educators.<\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Strategy 3: Goal-Setting<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve only ever thought of Classtime as an assessment app, you\u2019ve been missing a big opportunity to easily model types of goals to be set, create prompts, and gather goals in one central place for review.<\/p>\n<p>The long-term aim is for learners to encounter large learning tasks and begin to create their own <strong>SMART<\/strong> (<strong>S<\/strong>pecific, <strong>M<\/strong>easureable, <strong>A<\/strong>ttainable, <strong>R<\/strong>elevant and <strong>T<\/strong>ime-bound) goals, and then utilize Classtime to allow students to return to their goals in a final step: reflection.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s A LOT of literature already out there on how to create SMART goals. <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/presentation\/d\/1gamnFHsRAnV8no7jRD7lTdtAbc5jaMcBQkn4JHbwk6w\/copy?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Here\u2019s<\/a> how I did so with my students. Feel free to use it yourself!<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s focus on how Classtime fits into the metacognitive side of goal setting.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Modeling<\/strong><br \/>No matter the subject area or age, modeling for your students how to create SMART goals is essential. Usually, students often aren\u2019t used to the specificity and time elements required. I recommend that when you send a question set to your students for them to write their goals, you utilize the \u201coptionally, add more details here\u201d section to give them some scaffolding. For instance:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1230 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-6.07.55-PM-1024x579.png\" alt=\"Metacognition\" width=\"640\" height=\"362\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-6.07.55-PM-1024x579.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-6.07.55-PM-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-6.07.55-PM-768x434.png 768w, https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Screen-Shot-2019-06-12-at-6.07.55-PM.png 1108w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><br \/><strong>Gathering<\/strong><br \/>Actually, gathering is the easiest part! Just have your students submit their goals like any other answer they might punch into Classtime. Just remember&#8211;students are going to be returning to these goals (more on that in a second), so be sure you\u2019ve got the \u201callow only one attempt per question\u201d setting turned off.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sharing<\/strong><br \/>I should note there\u2019s conflicting opinions as to whether goals are more likely to be achieved if they\u2019re shared with others or kept to yourself. I\u2019m not going to wade into that debate, but you\u2019re more than welcome to use the teacher dashboard on Classtime to share out student responses. It can be a powerful tool in the right hands for the right purpose.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Returning to Goals<\/strong><br \/>Besides the creation of the SMART goals themselves, having students reflect on their goal progression might be the most important step. I\u2019ve typically had all of my students first set, later return, and finally conclude their SMART goals through a series reflection-based questions. All of them were open-ended, but could be completed and updated multiple times:<\/p>\n<p>1. The part of this goal that (was easy\/I think will be easy) was\/is ____________ because _________.<br \/>2. The part of this goal that (was challenging\/I think will be challenging) was\/is ____________ because _________.<br \/>3. How (have or might) my family\/friends support my achievement of my goal?<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there were a whole series of questions besides these I could have asked, but the point is that I wasn\u2019t asking them to set their SMART goals arbitrarily. I wanted them to critically think about future\/past challenges, support structures, and any other concerns that come along with long-term planning.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019d like to use this SMART goal question set in Classtime yourself, you can make a copy using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classtime.com\/share\/e89640ae-61b5-47c4-b714-f5664013017b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The easiest way to learn more is to start a session of your own and take the tour.
