Nord Anglia Education Nord Anglia, the leading international schools organisation, has published the final report from its two-year Metacognition Research Project , one of the most comprehensive studies of metacognition in schools to date, in partnership with the Lynch School of Education and Human Development at Boston College .
According to the report, metacognition, the ability to understand how one learns best and adapt thinking to thrive in different situations, is helping students develop essential skills and mindsets for life, including boosting future-ready skills by up to 72.
As artificial intelligence AI and automation transform the future of work, human skills are becoming more important than ever for the next generation of students to succeed. The study spanned 29 schools across 20 countries and engaged over 12,000 students and 5,000 teachers generating more than 500,000 student reflections through Nord Anglias first-of-its-kind platform designed to capture and visualise growth in future-ready skills that were previously difficult to measure.
