Hi,
I think part of the problem is that the studies tend to focus on different aspects of metacognition and study them independently. I have found that often the context is important as well (i.e. it may be different for teaching non native speakers English than it is for teaching science or online vs face to face). I find that self regulated learning encompasses a lot of what your post was asking about, so I have those types of articles mixed in here. I tried to primarily include undergraduate research, but not all of the articles do so.

Their articles tend to have some technical stuff about building the tutor, but LOTs of great stuff about metacognition.).

Subject: Request for References on Metacognition Literature
Dear Colleagues,
A graduate student I work with who does a lot training of other graduate students as Tas asked that I send out this request to the list. If you have resources to share, please let me know and I'll pass them along.
Best,
Nic
Sometimes, graduate student instructors-in-training need help being convinced that improving the metacognitive abilities of their students is a worthwhile endeavor in the limited time they have in class to improve student learning in their individual disciplines. To help motivate student practice of metacognitive abilities in class, I am interested in reviewing studies investigating the correlation of metacognitive abilities or thinking on student learning or academic achievement (especially at the undergraduate level). If there are studies or experiments you draw from to help convince instructors or students of the importance of developing metacognitive skills, they would certainly be helpful. Additionally, studies investigating specific approaches to developing metacognitive skills in students are also of interest. Thanks for your help.
Thanks Nic!
---Chris
