Title: A Learning Environment Attracting Attention to the Nested Structure of Metacognition of Self-Regulated Learning
Abstract: To learn the skill of self-regulated learning (SRL), it is important for learners to implement "metacognition of SRL" that monitors and controls SRL. However, we think there are two crucial difficulties in metacognition of SRL for non-experts of SRL skills: cognitive overload and the implicit process of metacognition of SRL. Our aim is to design a learning environment to alleviate these difficulties and motivate the metacognition of SRL. To focus learners' attention on the metacognition of SRL, we have designed a learning environment in which a learner is given an assignment to play the role of mentor to a pseudo mentee (non-human) to improve SRL. In the assignment, the learning environment provides representations about the mentee's learning situations and learner's utterances. We have designed a learning environment that allows learners to connect these representations and utterances to motivate the metacognition of SRL. This has been designed to alleviate cognitive load and promote the verbalization of SRL.
