Abstract

The existing research was carried out to study the meta cognitive skills among the students of school in Bhutan. This study was basically descriptive method used to acquire important and accurate information. The objective is to find the levels, gender, stream, and locality related differences in meta cognitive skills. The investigator selected 300 senior secondary school students through convenient sampling technique. For the collection of data the investigator used meta cognitive skills, tool developed by Dr. Punita Govil. The researcher used mean score, standard deviation, percentage, t-test, Pie charts, and bar graphs as statistical techniques. The result showed that 1% senior secondary school students had meta cognitive skills very high. 17.66% senior secondary school students belong to high level meta cognitive skills. 39.66% senior secondary school students had average level of meta cognitive skills. 28.66% senior secondary school students belong to low level mega cognitive skills. 13% senior secondary school students belong to very low level meta cognitive skills.
