The Impact Of Tagging/Metadata Creation Exercises On College Freshmen’S Metacognitive Skills, Hilary Wilder

NERA Conference Proceedings 2009

It was hypothesized that the repeated process of tagging objects and then receiving feedback from peers who try to use the tags to select the correct object as part of an online game-like activity would lead to improved epistemological skills.
