About Metacognition

3 documents about metacognition, an infographic of the basic principles connected to the bricks, a metacognition scale (taken from our R&D journal) and finally building thinking processes which maps different types of cognition and how one can move between them in the same task, increasing complexity from top to bottom. The bricks can be used for most of these 'ways of thinking'.
