Abstract

This chapter focuses on metacognition in relation to learning and cognition and discusses the potential of the Community of Inquiry (CoI) Framework to guide metacognitive development in online and blended learning environments. The commonality between metacognition and the community of inquiry is the interplay between internal knowledge construction and collaborative learning activities. In this regard, the CoI framework provides a model of cognition that operationalizes inquiry with the potential to contextualize and understand metacognition in an online learning environment. The metacognitive construct developed using the CoI framework as a theoretical lens is introduced, and the strategies and activities to support metacognition in a community of inquiry are provided.
