Implications for problem solving	Metacognitive components
Thinking deeply, reminding the possible strategies (planning)	1. Have I understood whatever is needed for understanding the problem? 2. Disintegration (breaking the problem into its components) 3. Separation 4. Solving the problem components separately
Strategy accomplishment (control and monitoring)	1. Have I determined the patterns and paths for problem solving? 2. Can I write the possible solutions to get the correct response? 3. Am I pressed for time to solve the problem?
Revision and regulation	1. Am I in a right path? 2. Am I approaching the goal? 3. Do I still use the strategies I have selected? 4. Do I need to review the problem again and use another strategy? 5. Can I solve the problem in another way? 6. Is the response correct?
