1. The process of metacognition involves recording one's thought process, using inquiry to gather evidence, creating hypotheses, analyzing information, and drawing conclusions. 2. The poem "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost describes a traveler coming to a fork in the road and choosing to take the less traveled path. 3. By analyzing the text, considering different interpretations, and researching the poem, one can draw conclusions about its themes and meaning beyond the surface level. This contributes to collective understanding and supports informed decision making.

16. Highlight/analyze Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I- I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.
