A middle school teacher can enable students become strategic self-motivated learners by

  • A.encouraging students to develop their metacognitive knowledge and skills.
  • B.providing varied forms of reinforcement for every task completed.
  • C.dictating well-prepared answers to questions in the textbook.
  • D.stressing upon objective-type testing at the end of the term.

Answer: A

The teacher should be encouraging students to develop their metacognitive knowledge and skills.

Strategic, self-motivated learners know how they learn and can plan, monitor and evaluate their own learning. That is metacognition, thinking about one's own thinking, and teaching it is what makes learners independent.

Reinforcing every task completed builds dependence on external rewards rather than self-motivation. Dictating ready-made answers encourages rote learning, and stressing objective-type tests at the end of term encourages memorizing for the test rather than strategic learning.
