This study investigated developmental changes in metacognitive strategies during elementary school years and examined the effects of intrinsic motivation on metacognitive strategies. A total of 113 Japanese elementary school children participated in a three-year longitudinal survey with eight times measurement occasions. Multilevel modeling analyses showed that metacognitive strategies would linearly increase over three years. Intrinsic motivation was also related to metacognitive strategies in two ways: the initial status of intrinsic motivation was associated with the average level of metacognitive strategies. Further, the deviations from the baseline of intrinsic motivation were related to changes in metacognitive strategies. This suggests that intrinsic motivation impacts the development of metacognitive strategies.

This paper describes a naturalistic research study based on the following question, “what are the experiences in the lives of upper elementary school children that foster an intrinsic motivation to seek information?” Participants were ten-year-olds selected using a specially-created survey. Analysis, based on data collected through interviews and drawings, indicates that students came from various family and socioeconomic backgrounds, exhibited an affinity for play, and tended to be creative and non-competitive. A point-of-passion experience occurred in the lives of all of the informants, as well as the presence of “anchor” relationships. Students specified components of intrinsically motivating information seeking episodes.

The teachers of 2231 elementary school children were asked to identify those with known or suspected hearing problems. Following screening, the data were compared. Teachers identified 5% of the children as hearing-impaired, while screening identified only 3%. There was agreement between the two procedures on 1%. Subsequent to the teacher interviews, rescreening and tympanometry were conducted. These procedures indicated that teacher screening and tympanometry were in agreement on 2% of the total sample or 50% of the hearing-loss group. It was concluded that teachers could supplement audiometry, particularly when otoscopy and typanometry are not available.
