Future directions for epistemic cognition research Summary The handbook of epistemic cognition brings together leading work from across disciplines, to provide a comprehensive overview of an increasingly important topic: how people acquire, understand, justify, change, and use knowledge in formal and informal contexts. Research into inquiry, understanding, and discovery within academic disciplines has progressed from general models of conceptual change to a focus upon the learning trajectories that lead to expert-like conceptualizations, skills, and performance. Outside of academic domains, issues of who and what to believe, and how to integrate multiple sources of information into coherent and useful knowledge, have arisen as primary challenges of the 21st century. In six sections, scholars write within and across fields to focus and advance the role of epistemic cognition in education. With special attention to how researchers across disciplines can communicate and collaborate more effectively, this book will be an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the future of knowledge and knowing Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed January 28, 2016) Subject Cognitive learning -- Handbooks, manuals, etc Learning, Psychology of -- Handbooks, manuals, etc Metacognition -- Handbooks, manuals, etc EDUCATION -- Essays.
