Abstract

The trainee teacher’s way of thinking can be an obstacle to learning what does not fit their beliefs or for which they do not have sufficient knowledge. This is especially evident in subjects that involve training for the development of inclusive classrooms. To facilitate the student’s reflection on one’s reasoning in the inclusive treatment of diversity, a program on the development of future teachers’ metacognitive inclusive skills was implemented. 43 students participated. Metacognitive knowledge both quantitative and qualitative perspective at different phases of the intervention was assessed. The results show a statistically significant increase in the metacognitive competence of the subjects following the intervention. In addition, it reveals that the subjects awarded a high value to metacognition for the inclusive treatment of diversity. The training program reveals the efficacy of initiatives that help the student to analyze his or her way of thinking.
