Abstract:
It has been confirmed that it is important for students to monitor their own cognitive activities during learning. We challenge this idea based on our “learning by creating cognitive models” paradigm. Within a learning environment developed for cognitive modeling, we let students construct cognitive mod- els that reflect their own cognitive information processing. A cryptarithmetic task was used. We conducted a cognitive science class in which participants were required to build computational models that behaved in a manner similar to how the students themselves behaved. As a result, 9 of the 22 (41%) models accurately reflected the participants’ problem-solving paths.
