Roles of Learning Skills Self-Awareness Accuracy
           YoonJung Cho, Oklahoma State University            Claire Ellen Weinstein, University of Texas at Austin ABSTRACT The primary purpose of this study was to examine whether college students develop more accurate self-awareness of their use of learning skills over the course of a semester-long learning-to-learn class. We also investigated how the accuracy of students’ self-awareness was related to achievement goal orientation and academic performance. Results showed that self-awareness became more accurate over the semester and the accuracy of self-awareness was negatively associated with performance-avoidance goals and positively associated with academic performance at the end of the semester.
