Comparison of Mathematics and Humanitarian Sciences Students' Metacognitive Strategies
Abstract: The purpose of this
study was to compare the differences of using meta-cognitive strategies in high
school students who study in the
fields of mathematics
and humanities. For
do this, 140
high school students
were selected randomly.
The Swanson’s Meta-cognition
Strategies Test was
administrated for sample
groups. The acquired
means for two
regroups were compared with
t-test for two independent groups’ method. Results indicated that
two groups were
meaningfully differed from each other (sig=0.01) in using meta-cognitive strategies, and mean of students in mathematics
field were high. Also
there was a
meaningful difference in
task component between
two groups (sig=0.002),
and the mean
of students in mathematics
field was higher
than from students
in humanities field
in this component.
The high school students in
mathematics field use
more metacognitive strategies,
especially task component,
than the students
in humanities field.
