Metacognition and Its Effect on Learning High School Calculus

The following paper discusses the effect of metacognitive training sessions on students calculus retention. Students in two high school classes participated.

After the latter chapter students scored higher on a post-test and expressed desire to incorporate the skills they learned into their other classes.
