When students reflect on their work and decide how they are going to use the feedback given to them to improve on future tasks, they become self-regulatory and self-reflective.\u00a0 It is important for parents and teachers to teach children how to self-regulate by having meaningful conversations with them about what and how they are learning and what changes, if any, will they make for next time.\u00a0 When a child can explain what they are learning, what challenges they are facing, and what triumphs they are making, they are being critical of the knowledge that they are presented with.\u00a0 Asking students what next steps they are going to take next, during and after an investigation, helps the learner see that learning is ongoing and meaningful.\u00a0 When relevant conversations are occurring both at\u00a0school and at home, students will soon realize that they must\u00a0complete assignments and homework, because these activities are meant to solidify learning, and\u00a0someone who\u00a0is interested in their learning\u00a0will ask\u00a0them about\u00a0the topics.\u00a0 Students who see the importance and relevance of\u00a0learning are better at self-regulating, because they can make connections and they are reflective.\u00a0 To help students with this, parents and teachers need to be involved by facilitating their learning by asking questions and genuinely being interested in the topics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
