The first level is cognition, people memorize, read, write and perceive information. It would come to cognitive stage, when individuals accept new things. For instance, people read weibo, or watch a video from Youtube.
The second level is metacognition, people monitor their own progress when they are engaged in these first-order tasks. In other words, it means ''cognition about cognition'', or ''knowing about knowing''. Metacognition can involve data processing, checking process, predicting and evaluating progress. For example, people can browse in different categories.
At the third level, epistemic cognition, individuals reflect on the limits of knowing, the certainty of knowing, and criteria of knowing. It has 5 key components: (1)epistemic aims (2)structure of knowledge (3)certainly, sources ,and justification of knowledge (4)epistemis virtue and responsibility (5)reliably and processes.
Social cognitive theory (SCT) focuses on what and how people learn from one another through observation, imitation, and modeling. SCT states that there are three characteristics that are unique to humans: Vicarious consequences, Self–efficacy, Performance standards and moral conduct.
I think the examples and pictures you cited are very appropriate and vivid to explain the three levels of cognitive. good job~
回复删除The typography of your blog is good, make it very easy to read. Also, the examples you have given in your article are very useful, they helped me understand the three levels of cognition better. The most important thing is not how to know the conception of something, but the process of thinking. We can learn nothing if we don't think about what we have learnt.
