Abstract

By using questionnaire survey and interview method, this paper studies the difference in the use of Metacognitive Strategies by liberal arts students and science students in their English learning, and it also investigates the relationship between the use of Metacognitive Strategies and their performance in TEM-4. It is concluded that both liberal arts students and science students have some metacognitive awareness; however, compared with science students, liberal arts students have much more metacognitive awareness. Besides, the metacognitive strategies have some influence on students’ academic performance, and liberal arts students perform better than science students in English learning.
