This is a video made by a friend of mine (her name is Jenna) who is an instructor of one of the other sections of Educational Psychology. She's describing some specific metacognitive strategies she uses while reading for her classes. I'd like you to watch this video and write about whether any strategies like these have helped you in regulating your own thinking/studying in the past and describe which metacognitive strategies are MOST effective for you (and describe why that might be, using your knowledge from the book).
I have done all of the metacognitive strategies that Jenna talked about in this video except for the color-coded tabs. One strategy that helps me the most is highlighting then jotting down some notes in a notebook with the page number next to whatever I have written down. I usually use this strategy when if I need to write a paper on the reading. One strategy that is most effective to me when studying for a test is to make flashcards. The main reason flashcards are so helpful to me is because it really sticks in my head when I write down what I need to learn and the continuously study the information.
