Poster Title: Peer Tutoring Effect on Metacognition
Abstract:
Metacognition is the knowledge of knowledge. (Schraw, 1995) Metacognition is necessary for individuals to know how to learn and how they relate to others. While studies have been conducted exploring the benefits of peer learning, it has not been extensively tested and repeated in scholarly situations. It is important to learn about peer learning to find the significant effects and benefits and to explore different metacognitive strategies. With this information, students could potentially improve their study habits and information retention. The significance of this study is that individuals can discover methods of furthering their educational understanding.
