INTRODUCTION

English translation pending.

CORE DEFINITION

SMRR is a metacognitive framework that turns an abstract capability into four teachable steps. Self-questioning activates task awareness by asking what the goal is and what is already known. Monitoring checks in the moment whether understanding is genuine. Regulating switches strategy when a gap appears, whether by rereading, asking for help, or changing approach. Reflecting reviews afterwards which strategy worked and how it might transfer. The sequence converts learning to learn from a slogan into trainable behaviour.

SCAFFOLDING EFFECT

psychology

Reduce cognitive load

- Use task question: ask what the goal is and what you already know about it. - Use comprehension check: test in the moment whether you truly understand the material. - Use strategy switch: change your approach the moment a comprehension gap appears.

Metacognition is turned into a four-step cycle. Self-questioning activates task awareness, monitoring detects whether understanding is real, regulation switches method when a gap appears, and reflection consolidates what worked afterwards. This makes learning to learn a teachable and trainable skill rather than an abstract slogan.

MINIMUM ACTION

In progress 0/1

Ask yourself what the task requires and what you already know. 2. Monitor during the work whether you truly understand. 3. Regulate by switching strategy when you get stuck. 4. Reflect afterwards on which strategy worked and why.
