[[🐓 Idea Farm/Deadfall/For myself only/Readwise/Books/The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People]] "You never drive so fast that you forget to get gas, or if you do, you know what happens" It's kind of like [[Self-Regulated Learning]], and how although [[self assessment is not linked to performance]], [[reflection]] is linked to metacognition as long as it is healthily framed. It is a method of asking a few questions after a test to assess how you prepared and how did that preparation get you ready for the experience. This matters because if you can create a healthy set of reflections, you can take action next time to do things in a more healthy way to prepare. This can create a form of [[Feedback]] for your preparation that is caged in [[Identifying Reality]]. ### What would the opposite argument be? When I don't do well, it's the teacher's fault, which reminds me that [[I haven't failed until I've blamed]]. ## Sources: [Teaching Tip: Exam Reflections: Promoting Metacognition and Self-Regulated Learning | MGH Institute of Health Professions](https://www.mghihp.edu/faculty-staff-faculty-compass-teaching/teaching-tip-exam-reflections-promoting-metacognition-and)
