COGNITIVE STRATEGY
A. INTRODUCTION
The humans learning process is happening wherever they
are, conciously or unconciously. Almost all of the abilities, skills,
knowledges, habits, hobbies, and humans act is formed,
modificated, developed by learning (Suryabrata, 2002). This
mean that the learning process and anything connected with it
are important to the humans life, therefore its really important
for them to understand how the learning process happens and
what is the right concept of learning.
The learning process is influented by many factors. One of
them is human psychology. The psychology factor is hard to
observe while the teacher is encouraged to watch it happens
effectively. Then, a good solution blows up from educational
psychology. The educational psychology gives big constribution
for the teacher, for the education world.
B. PSYCHOLOGY AND THE PROCESS OF LEARNING
Learning is a famous term in education world. Learning
can be defined differently because the learning activity can
become many models. For example, remembering poems,
adding new vocabularies, and etcetera. But generally, learning
is defined as the change of humans behaviour from one level of
development to a bettel level.
Learning is influented by many factors: nonsocial, social,
fisiology, and psychology factor. The fisiology factor is very
influential to support the learning process happens, such as
curiousity, motivation to fix a failure, the want to get secure
when the human (student) can master certain topic and feeling
free from all anxieties, ambition, and etcetera.
In the psychology discipline, there is a term called
educational
psychology/cognitive

F. THE IMPORTANCE OF COGNITIVE STRATEGY
There are several lines of research that support the
importance of cognitive strategies in learning and thinking. One
prominent line of research compares experts with novices or
proficient students with less proficient students (e.g., Chan,
Burtis, Scardamalia, & Bereiter, 1992; Chi, Bassok, Lewis,
Reimann, & Glaser, 1989). Researchers using these methods
have found significant differences in strategy use between more
and less proficient learners, reasoners, and problem solvers.
A second line of research experimentally examines the
effects of training students to learn by employing a strategy or
set of strategies (e.g., Graham, MacArthur, & Schwartz, 1995).
Many such studies have demonstrated that students who learn
the new strategies outperform those who did not learn the
strategies.
