Abstract

This article investigates how educational practices (either teaching practices or internal structure of the current academic systems) in the gulf, deal with different aspects of cognitive and meta-cognitive skills among the students. In the introduction part, the importance and dimensions of cognitive and meta-cognitive skills were discussed in relation with some relevant subjects. Then, we further elaborate on current educational practices worldwide and its effect on common perception towards science. Finally, we discuss local perspectives to give another view of improving cognitive and metacognitive skills among the students.
