Metacognition & Inquiry: Skills that go hand in hand
Metacognition and Inquiry are integral parts of the Service Learning/Passion Project process because students need to be able to discern what they know from what they don't and then determine a way to move forward. Which questions should be asked? Based upon different variables, which way to move forward is the best? How should a problem be solved? What are future steps and connections? If students cannot think about their thinking, they will not be able to dig deeper.
