The Potency Of Metacognitive Learning To Foster Mathematical Logical Thinking

Abstract

The ability of thinking logically needs to be developed due to the fact that it is an essential basic
skill. Logical thinking affects that giving reason must be true, and that a sequence of assumptions is based
on the high truth value. Mathematics is a subject that functions to train students to think logically. The
understanding of logic will help students to arrange the proof that support through process to finally
arrive at a conclusion. Currently, metacognition is viewed as an essential element of learning. It refers to
someone knowledge of processes and the result itself or of that connected to the process. Metacognition is
needed when student solves the task that needs argumentation and logical understanding. In order to help
student to skillful think logically, mathematics learning must be designed as such so that the condition
will raise the skill of metacognitive acts.
