Abstract

Currently, policy makers around the world are trying to reform the educational system in general and Mathematics education in particular to create a fundamental change in the content, curriculum and students’ methods of learning Mathematics. Innovative efforts in Mathematics education focus on helping students develop the core competencies of the 21st century to create more educational and career choices for students in the future. Metacognition or thinking about thinking refers to an individual's ability to control his or her thinking processes, especially the perception of choosing and using problem-solving strategies. To find solutions to the problems mentioned, a number of studies have focused on understanding the role of metacognition in problem solving activities in the teaching process of Mathematics. In this study we will explore some metacognitive models in Mathematics education, therefor, we research “Application of metacognition skill to methods problem solution for secondary school students”.
