About this ebook
A free guide on metacognition and education for high school students.
You are born with powers of mind like reasoning and imagination. They come with the package. But to use them well, you need a rich base of knowledge. This guide tells you why.
Our background knowledge is always working. We perceive, analyze, and create based on what we already know. We just don’t notice; it works below the surface of our awareness.
Education matters because it provides a broad base of knowledge that underlies our everyday life.
