A Comparison of Classification Technique for Metacognitive Knowledge

Metcognitive learning has been developed to 1) enhance students to have awareness for conducting self study, 2) verify metacognitive knowledge and 3) provide proper lessons for each student. The test of metacognitive knowledge was implemented, and at least two out of three metacognitive knowledges; knowledge of self, knowledge of task, and knowledge of strategy, should be presented so that students’ metacognitive regulation can be proved. Therefore classification techniques were proposed to classify metacognitive knowledge of students via accuracy comparison of four classification techniques: Bayesian classifier, Decision Tree, Rule Based, and General Classification as 92.04%, 91.22%, 86.56%, and 92.87% respectively. Nonetheless, Bayesian Classifier is selected to be algorithm for metacognitive learning environment.
