Metacognition and Reflection

"The function of cognition is to solve problems, to bring cognitive enterprises to a good end. The function of metacognition is to regulate a person’s cognitive operation in solving a problem or executing a task."
Chapter 2. Metacognition and Reflection

I think that researching, understanding and refining this process will be critical for individuals, business entities and governments to operate efficiently in an information based society.


How is the information being processed?
Why is the information being processed in a certain manner?
 What determines how the information will be used?
