Mr. Cooper, an 8th grade Social Studies teacher, thinks that metacognitive experiences can deepen a student’s ability to learn. He is teaching about the Civil Rights Era to his students. To create a metacognitive experience for the students, which of the following would NOT be an effective class experience?
  1. Asking students to reflect on experiences where they feel their rights were compromised
  2. Asking students to write a report on Rosa Parks’ experience
  3. Having students pair up to discuss how they feel about their rights in their school
  4. Having students do oral reports that discuss a time when they felt discrimination
Explanation
Answer: B - Asking students to write a report on Rosa Parks’ experience. This would the least effective assignment to bring about a metacognitive experience because it asks students to reflect on a historical figure and not factor in their own experiences. For students to connect learning to self and be able to think through the information taught, creating a relevant personalized assignment is most effective.
