Do not mistake my intelligence with my IQ scores, test scores from school or any form of testing., because I am a metacognitive person. So, it may seem that I am dumb on regular testing, but if you put me in fromt of something wiithout pressuring me. There is a chance I can give you an answer right there and then.

The definition of metacognition will be an individual’s knowledge of their own cognitive
processes and their ability to control these processes by organizing,
monitoring and modifying them as a function of learning. It refers to
the ability to reflect upon the task demand and independently select
and employ the appropriate reading, writing, math or learning strategy. Metacognition is having an understanding of how you learn, knowing
the best way to approach a given task, monitoring your understanding and evaluating progress. Good
teachers have intuitively appreciated the benefits of students
developing awareness of how they learn best. Our
early experience plays an important role in determining our particular
style but the style may vary according to the task in hand. Many people
have been disadvantaged by too much 'chalk and talk' teaching and may
go through life with a negative view of their capabilities.  It is estimated that only 25% of people are strong when
it comes to taking in information by simply listening (auditory mode), 
35% need to see the material (visual learners) and 40% learn best by
doing (kinesthetic learners). Most of us learn well when we experience
new material in a multisensory way.
I would most likely say that I am a visual/ kinestic individual

Importance in learning and society
Metacognition is an important aspect of student learning. It involves
self regulation, reflection upon an individual’s performance strengths,
weaknesses, learning and study strategies. Metacognition is the
foundation upon which students become independent readers and writers.
It also underlies student’s abilities to generalize math problem
solving strategies.

Metacognition with Mathematics


Metacognition is thinking about thinking. Often when solving math
problems, a solution or a means to one pops into our head so quickly that
we don't know how we found it. It is not always easy to slow down our thinking, retrace
the path of our thoughts and examine our hidden strategies. Doing so can help us to
develop a set of strategies to try when we are utterly stumped.

That is why mathematicians are always asking themselves, "How did I figure that out?" In other words, the answer to a question is only the beginning. Understanding how you thought up that answer can help you discover the answers to much harder questions.

Type of multiple intelligence I have

Logical-mathematical intelligence:  the ability to detect patterns, reason deductively
and think logically.

Musical intelligence: skill in the performance, composition, and appreciation of musical
patterns, and runs in an almost structural parallel to linguistic intelligence.( mostly in my head)

Bodily-kinesthetic intelligence: the ability to use mental abilities to coordinate bodily
movements.

Spatial intelligence: the potential to recognize and use patterns of wide space and more
confined areas. 

Interpersonal intelligence: 
the capacity to understand the intentions, motivations and desires of
other people.

Intrapersonal intelligence: the capacity to understand oneself, to appreciate one's feelings,
fears and motivations and to be able to use this to inform one's life.
