Relationship between metacognitive knowledge, metacognitive monitoring and self-regulation during problem-based laboratory among final-year electrical engineering students of Universiti Teknologi Malaysia

In order to solve a problem, metacognition is needed, as it triggers the learning of the individuals. The learning skills are very important to the engineering students as it developed the students to solve the problem through the engineering curriculum as well as experiences in life. There are thre...
