The Importance Of Metacognitive Knowledge In Engineering Education: Strategy And Experience

Table 1:

Stages Task Example Step-by-step example of solving a task Results
I stage Choose the basic category of modern philosophy and build a logical series of concepts of the proposed level, revealing it. Give justification for logical linear connection with examples, demonstrating the impossibility of interchangeability of the concept of a different level.Examples of concepts: "technology", "creativity", "virtuality". Philosophy Level"Technique" - art - beauty - Aphrodite - perfection - space… Daily Level"Technique" - machine - engine - power -fuel - price... Level of Engineering Rationality"Technique" - production - technology - algorithm - programming -the code… Mastering the analytical method through discursive practices. Ability to self-presentation
II stage To consider the selected basic category of modern philosophy in the framework of P. Florensky’s idea of "round thinking". Demonstrate the mobility of meaning, which can be revealed in various ways of eras, languages and cultures. Formulate an idea as something unchanging. "Technique" - speech technique - rhetoric - skill..."Technique" - motion technique - sporting achievements ..."Technique" - machinery - artificial - artifact..."Technique" - virtuality - code system - artificial intelligence..."Technique" - production - serialization - automatism - failure..."Technique" - artificial organs - chips - cybersystems..."Technique" - art - aesthetics – "spirit of the time" - technological civilization..."Technique" as something that is born together with a person, his physicality (organs), which cannot be understood and given only in the form of production, because it is connected with the very method (skill) of introducing artificial objects into the world (culture). Distinction between logical and metaphysical concepts. Ability to think critically, synthesize, reach the level of "idea".
III stage Identify the problem within the limits of the established "circle" of thinking. Problem: technology as an alternative to the human body (body reconstruction, "body-clothing", "body-rudiment"). Reveal the metaphysical meaning of the problem, its impact on everyday life, the development of engineering technologies.Examples of texts used to substantiate the problem: M. Heidegger, "Question of Technology"; H. Beck "The essence of technology". Ability to identify a problem, express it as a concept using various sources
