A Metacognition / Study Strategies Specialist supports learners in developing awareness of their thinking processes and applying structured learning strategies. Responsibilities include conducting learning diagnostics, teaching self-regulated learning techniques, designing workshops on planning and reflection, collaborating with teachers to embed strategy instruction, and monitoring academic progress. The role operates in schools, universities, learning support centers, and academic development units.
