UNLOCKING BIOLOGY LEARNING: METACOGNITION, CRITICAL THINKING, AND PROCESS SKILLS INTERPLAY
Abstract
"Unlocking Biology Learning: Metacognition, Critical Thinking, and Process Skills Interplay" investigates the complex relationships between metacognitive skills, critical thinking abilities, and process skills in the context of biology education. Drawing upon empirical research and theoretical frameworks, this study explores how these cognitive processes interact and influence students' learning outcomes in biology. Through quantitative analysis and qualitative insights, the research aims to unravel the dynamics that underlie effective biology learning strategies, offering implications for curriculum development and instructional practices.
