现代信息社会的教育过程需要个人的主动性----不仅在机构环境中,而且在校外和工作环境中。除了认知能力(例如,阅读或数学素养),因此,一个人调节自己学习过程的能力对于成功的学习和工作特别重要。元认知是自主学习过程中的一个重要组成部分。它被定义为关于认知的认知,包括两个组成部分:知识组成部分和规则组成部分。为了更好地了解元认知如何演变以及其发展如何受到认知和动机成分的影响,德国国家教育小组研究(NEPS)旨在评估元认知的不同方面以及生命各个阶段的自我调节。本文概述了在NEPS中评估元认知和自我调节的一般方法,重点是评估元认知的一个特定组成部分,即元认知知识。结果从两个试点研究的一个新开发的测试仪器(两个实验不同版本的测试)的中学生。关于元认知知识测试的结果进行了讨论,不仅在NEPS的进一步发展,但也与他们的理论和实践的影响。
Educational processes in modern information societies require personal initiative – not only in institutional contexts but also in out-of-school and working environments. Besides cognitive competencies (e.g., reading or mathematical literacy), a person’s ability to regulate his/her own learning processes is therefore of particular importance for successful learning and working. Metacognition is a central component in the process of self-regulated learning. It is defined as cognition about cognition and encompasses two components: the knowledge component and the regulation component. To better understand how metacognition evolves and how its development is influenced by cognitive and motivational components, the German National Educational Panel Study (NEPS) aims at assessing different aspects of metacognition as well as self-regulation in the respective phases of the lifespan. The present paper gives an overview on the general approach of assessing metacognition and self-regulation within the NEPS, focusing on the assessment of one specific component of metacognition, namely, metacognitive knowledge. Results from two pilot studies on a newly developed test instrument (with two experimentally varied versions of the test) for secondary school students are presented. The results concerning the metacognitive knowledge test are discussed not only with regard to further developments within the NEPS but also with regard to their theoretical and practical implications.
