Episode 10: Metacognition and the Future of Learning

What if the most powerful learning upgrade isn’t content or AI, but teaching people how to think about their own thinking?

In this episode of STAI Tuned, Stella and Aiden explore metacognition: the science of self-awareness in learning. They unpack the research behind how learners monitor, regulate, and adapt their own strategies, and why this is one of the most overlooked drivers of long-term success in both corporate training and coaching.

Drawing on the latest studies and real learner insights, the episode shows how Smart-Training AI brings metacognitive principles to life with adaptive tools, personalised support, and learning journeys that train the brain as well as the behaviour.

Whether you’re a coach, trainer, or learning leader, this episode will reshape how you design for agency, reflection, and real-world impact.
