Summary: 
Metacognition is the process by which learners engage in “thinking about thinking.” It comprises two key components: knowledge and regulation. Metacognitive knowledge refers to learners’ understanding of themselves as learners, the factors that may influence their performance, the available strategies, and the reasons for using those strategies. Metacognitive regulation involves monitoring one’s own cognitive processes, including planning activities, maintaining awareness of comprehension and task performance, evaluating cognitive processes, and overseeing the use of strategies. The aim of this paper is to discuss the fostering of metacognition in teaching the concept of circles in the coordinate plane with the support of GeoGebra software, with the goal of improving student learning outcomes. The research method employed in this study is theoretical analysis. The novelty of this paper lies in proposing an instructional process and corresponding methods for fostering metacognition in teaching circles in the coordinate plane using GeoGebra.
