This article introduces a pedagogical construct based on a modified KWL framework using a combination of evidence - based visual and verbal instructional methods,
in conjunction with the development of
metacognitive and self - regulating
strategies.
Importantly, studies also show that
strategies such as formative assessment (formal and informal assessments conducted by teachers during the learning process
in order to modify teaching and learning activities to improve student attainment) and
metacognitive (awareness and understanding of one's own thought processes) approaches — techniques typically employed
in personalized learning classrooms — improve student learning.
In addition to making students aware that self - regulation can make their brains «smarter,» we need to teach students how and when to use cognitive and
metacognitive strategies.
Identify practical
strategies for teaching students to monitor their progress and use
metacognitive thinking to take ownership of their next steps
in the learning process.

strategies.8 Also
in educational approaches, self - regulation includes the ability to postpone immediate satisfaction to attain long - term goals, the ability to mobilize energy and to sustain attention, to resist distracting information and to shift flexibly between mind sets.
