Tibetan And Chinese Students' Mathematics Learning Cognitive Comparative Study

Since the conception of metacognition was proposed by America psychologist Flavell, researches of metacognition have been highly emphasized by pedagogic educators and psychologists all over the world. These researches developed and enriched the relevant results of psychology on theory, and as well in practice, e.g. the essences of human intelligence, deploration of human's intelligence, training the thinking ability of students and the problem solving, such as, "teach the students how to study mathematics" . Numerous theories and practical works on conception, structure and training of metacognition have been done by many researchers all over the world. But few researches have combined metacognition with mathematics subject , especially the researches from cross-culture and comparetie mathematics metacognition perspectives.Based on the existed theories about metacognition and researches abroad the country . this thesis discusses the metacognition combined with mathematics subject.From cross-culture, the reasons for different metacognition in comparative different the perspectives of nationality are presented.First, the general level of mathematical metacognition of Zang-Han junior students and senior students is slow , and there is not apparent difference of metacognition between male and female students . However, junior students and senior students in Han natinality are better than Zang's junior students and senior students on metacognition knowledge and meta cognition supervisor level. While the experiences of Zang students are better than Han students. Second, mathematical metacognition of Zang-Han junior and senior students and mathematical achievements are positively relevant. As the age increases, the degree of relevanc is not increased. Third, ability of mathematics study and the development ofmeta- cognition are influenced by language, mathematic teachers, the career and education of parents , family surroundings, the number of storage of books. Last, in order to improve Zang students' ability of mathematics study, our present urgent task is to reinforce the train of metacognition and training of metacognition ability.Methods of investigate questionnaire, analysis, articles, statistic sand test are used in this thesis.
