A Survey and Research on Mathematical Metacognition among Mathematics Normal Students in Local Universities

Abstract

Mathematical metacognition is an important topic in the research field of Mathematics education. Good mathematical metacognition can promote the efficiency of mathematical learning. This article uses questionnaire survey and mathematical statistics to analyze the current situation of mathematical metacognition and dimensions among mathematics normal students in Qinghai Province, as well as differences in grade and gender. The results show that: (1) The mathematical metacognition and dimensions of mathematics normal students in Qinghai Province are at a moderate level; (2) There are significant grade differences in mathematical metacognition, mathematical metacognition experience dimension, and mathematical metacognition monitoring dimension, while there is no significant grade difference in mathematical metacognition knowledge dimension; (3) There is no significant gender difference in mathematical metacognition and dimensions.
