摘要:Asking questions is a powerful resource to learn science. The aim of this study was to evaluate the development of metacognitive competencies by asking questions. In this study two experimental devices of science were used with unexpected behavior. Participants were asked to ask questions to understand their operation. The assessment contrasted the performance of Colombian students with equivalent Spanish students. The results showed that Colombians significantly ask more general questions, and more questions of high quality, than Spanish students. We concluded that these students have developed their control of understanding effectively.
