DESCRIPTION

Addressing metacognitive functions has been shown to improve performance at the individual, team, and organizational levels. Metacognition is beginning to surface as an added cognate discipline for the field of human performance technology (HPT). Advances from research in the fields of cognition and metacognition offer a place for HPT to expand its theoretical base. This article summarizes current theories of metacognition and presents a new metacognitive model for HPT. Published: Turner, J. R. (2011). New metacognitive model for human performance technology. Performance Improvement, 50(7), 25-32. doi: 10.1002/pfi.20229

Knowledge Domains

Declarative Knowledge

Knowledge about oneself as a learner and

about what factors in�uence one’s performance.

Conceptual Knowledge

Interrelationships among the basic elements

within a larger structure that enable them to

function together.

Procedural Knowledge

Knowledge about procedural skills.

Knowing when and why to apply various

cognitive actions.

Metacognition

“cognition that refelcts on, monitors, or regulates first-order cognition” (Kuhn, 2000)

“Knowledge about cognition in general, as well as awareness of and knowledge about one’s own cognition” (Pintrich, 2002)

Metacognition: Critical Point #1

•Metacognition is a cyclical activity where the cognitive functions are reflected upon and moni-tored by the metacognitive functions.• Metacognitiveandcognitivefunctionsareinteractingwithoneanother.

“educational research corroborates theories that emphasize the interaction of cognitive, meta-cognitive, and affective components of learning” (Gourgey, 1998).

Metacognition: Critical Point #1

•Gourgey (1998) identifies metacognitive pro-cesses as “internal, ‘executive’ processes that su-pervise and control cognitive processes”.

Critical Point #1: Metacognition is cyclical and in-teractive with the cognitive domains.

Metacognition: Critical Point #2

“Investigators have recently concluded that meta-cognition plays an important role in oral com-munication of information, oral persuasion, oral comprehension, reading comprehension, writ-ing,languageacquisition,attention,memory,problem-solving, social cognition, and various types of self-control and self-instruction” (Fla-vell, 1979).

Metacognition: Critical Point #3

•Research has acknowledged cognitive and meta-cognitive activities when referring to individu-als, teams, groups, and organizations.

“individuals, groups, and organizations can be conceptualized as a nested hierarchy of learning systems: (Arrow, McGrath & Berdahl, 2000)

Metacognition: Critical Point #3

•Learning, when referring to a team, group, or or-ganization can be viewed as an isomorphic con-struct (Garavan & McCarthy, 2008).

•isomorphic: “having similar or identical structure or form” (Webster’s College Dictionary, 2001).

Metacognition: Critical Point #3

•Fromthisperspective,thelearningfunctionsatthe individual level, including the cognitive and metacognitive functions, could be used to mod-el the learning functions at the team, group, and organization levels.

Critical Point #3: Metacognition is an isomor-phic construct that can be applied to each level of performance: individual, process, or organiza-tion.

Metacognition: Critical Point #4

•Researchindicatesthatcognitiveandmetacog-nitive functions operate on their own indepen-dent neuronal paths within the brain.

“It may well be that the mechanisms that sub-serve one or another type of metacognitive judgment rely, in turn, on the functioning of relatively independent modules” (Rosenthal, 2000).

Metacognition: Critical Point #4

•Researchonmemoryindicatesthatcognitivesystems are not connected to one location with-in the brain.

Instead of cognitive systems being located in one area of the brain, “a more likely scenario is that the brain implements cognition via inter-connected networks of specialized areas, each performing different computation” (Fernandez-Duque,Baird,&Posner,2000).

Critical Points about Metacognition

1. Metacognition is cyclical and interactive with the cognitive domains.

2. Improving metacognitive abilities helps to im-prove performance.

3. Metacognition is an isomorphic construct that can be applied to each level of performance: in-dividual, process, or organization.

4. Cognitive functions and their associated meta-cognitive functions do not operate on singular networks or loops.

Benefits to HPT / New Model

•“Creation/validationofmodelsanddevelop-ment of HPT theory” was found to be the highest priority in the HPT research category from Hug-lin, Johnsen, and Markers’ (2007) Delphi Study.

“Many HPT scholars agree that more theory de-velopment and theory-grounded empirical re-search are in order” (Cho and Yoon 2010).

Metacognitive Model for HPT

•Declarative and Conceptual Knowledge are grouped together indicating that both types of knowledge are dependent on one another.• DeclarativeKnowledgedealswithalowerlevelofunderstanding,primarilyone’slexiconorfacts.

• ConceptualKnowledgeinvolvesahigherlevelofunderstanding,compar-ingconceptsanddeterminingtheirrelationships.

•Declarative Knowledge and Conceptual Knowl-edge are associated with Kuhn’s (2000) Metacog-nitive Knowing.

Metacognitive Model for HPT

•Procedural Knowledge is best represented by Kuhn’s (2000) Metastrategic Knowing domain.

•This Metastrategic Knowing domain is divided into two subcategories: Metatask Knowledge and Metastrategic Knowledge.

Conclusion•Research has indicated that performance improve-

ment occurs when the metacognitive domains are ad-dressed.

•This model addresses the concerns identified by Hug-lin, Johnsen, and Marker (2007) when they indentified that the creation and validation of models were re-quiredtofurthertheresearcheffortswithinHPT.

•Addressing the cognitive and metacognitve domains during performance improvement efforts, such as ap-plying the concepts in the Metacognitive Model for HPT, can assist the field of HPT.
