Metacognition is, put simply, thinking about one’s thinking. More precisely, it refers to the processes used to plan, monitor, and assess one’s understanding and performance. Metacognition includes a critical awareness of a) one’s thinking and learning and b) oneself as a thinker and learner. (Definition by Nancy Chick, Vanderbilt CFT Assistant Director, taken from this excellent, openly licenced overview of metacognition)
