Metacognition

Definition:
metacognition- thinking about one's own metal processes; awareness and understanding one's thinking and cognitive process; thinking about thinking

What does it mean to be metacongnitive?
Metacognitive learners take time to think about their thinking; they also view themselves as continual learners and thinkers. These people actively seek to expand their repertoire of strategies for learning and ask for guidance from peers or the teacher.

From reading about metacognition I believe that one of the goals at OH is to be a metacognitive learner.
