Metacognition means "thinking about one's thinking". There are two aspects of metacognition: - reflection- thinking about what we know and self-regulation managing how we go about learning (Winn and Snyder, 1996). These processes, when combined, constitute an important element of education and growth. Strengthening these cognitive processes' talents entails not only being reflective learners but also learning specialized learning approaches. Some of the terminology that pertains to metacognition includes metacognitive beliefs, metacognitive awareness, metacognitive experiences, metacognitive knowledge, metacognitive skills, executive abilities, higher-order skills, meta components, and memory retention. Being aware of how you think is what metacognitive awareness entails. Metacognition is the awareness of one's thoughts and strategies. It allows students to be more conscious of the things they are doing and the cause they are doing, as well as how those abilities they are acquiring may be implemented differently in other circumstances. The investigators in this paper try to analyze the metacognitive awareness of higher secondary school students. The metacognitive awareness scale developed and standardized was used by Gupta and Suman (2017) to check the metacognitive awareness of higher secondary school students. The study tries to find out whether there exists any significant difference in their metacognitive awareness based on gender, type of school and Stream among higher secondary school students. The investigators use appropriate statistical techniques like mean, standard deviation, and t-test for the analysis of the data.
