Enacting Metalearning: Using Performance Based Research in conjunction with Meyer's Reflections on Learning Inventory to raise HND/FD students' awareness of the self as learner in the context of level six (final year) undergraduate study

Connolly, R.; Ward, S.

Abstract

The concept of metalearning, as defined by Biggs (1985), encapsulates two complementary features of deep level, self-regulated learning capacity: 1) an awareness of self as learner in some specified context and 2) control over self as learner in that context (see Meyer, Ward & Latreille, 2009). Metalearning is thus concerned with increasing students' capacity for selfregulation and thereby making them aware of the projected likely consequences of a particular study orchestration (Meyer, 2004) in a given context. Research Aim: To explore how developing HND/ FD students' metalearning capacity might aid their transition onto a BA Honours Drama programme.
