Mary Lou writes:   By strategies, I am referring to the instructional 
strategies that teachers use to teach metacognition.  I love the PEBC work in terms 
of how they relate metacognition strategies (thinking strategies) in reading, 
writing, mathematics, informational and research. 

Pam writes:   What about the CRISS program out of Montana?   It is designed 
to train teachers to train their students in metacognitive strategies.   Or in 
other words, to realize when they are learning and how they are learning and 
if they aren't learning to try another strategy.   I was very impressed with 
the program.
