Shared Metacognition in a Community of Inquiry

CoI-based course activities are essential for supporting students' self- and co-regulated learning within shared metacognitive environments.

“Garrison (2022) emphasized that CoI-based course activities are essential for supporting students' self- and co-regulated learning within shared metacognitive environments.”

Shared metacognition is not an individual skill but a knowledge construction process at a group level that strengthens both presence and engagement in asynchronous online courses.

“Shared metacognition is thus not an individual skill but a knowledge construction process at a group level that strengthens both presence and engagement in asynchronous online courses.”

Engagement is closely linked to the presence of shared metacognitive processes.

“Moreover,engagement (defined as the behavioral, emotional, and cognitive investment in learning) has been found to be closely linked to the presence of shared metacognitive processes.”

When learners are actively involved in monitoring and managing their learning in small groups, they are more likely to demonstrate sustained engagement and deeper learning outcomes.

“When learners are actively involved in monitoring and managing their learning in small groups, they are more likely to demonstrate sustained engagement and deeper learning outcomes (Garrison, 2022).”

Meaningful learning in a CoI requires a shift from individual performance to shared inquiry and responsibility.

“This finding supports Garrison's (2022) assertion that meaningful learning in a CoI requires a shift from individual performance to shared inquiry and responsibility.”

Shared metacognition is shaped by the overlap between CP and TP.

“Despite these challenges, our findings demonstrated moderate and significant correla -tions between CP, TP, and both self- and co-regulation, suggesting that shared metacognition is shaped by the overlap between CP and TP (Garrison, 2022).”
