Abstract: Abstract The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of metacognitive training in the course of Mathematics Olympiad for Primary 6 students. Two students were in the group of metacognitive training and past training method respectively. This study adopted a case study design where analysis of the students' problem solving behaviours was used to explore the role of metacognition in problem solving. The difference between the problem solving behaviour of the students with metacognitive training and past training method could be observed. The metacognitive training program, IMPROVE (Mevarech and Kramarski, 1997), was adopted in the study. The skillful arithmetic problems were selected for primary 6 students on problem solving of Mathematics Olympiad. By examining the students' written work and video tapes, it was found that the majority of their adopted strategies revealed successful self-monitoring process in the metacognitive training. Moreover, results from the students exposed to the metacognitive training outperformed those exposed to the past training method on the ability to solve problems. As a result, metacognitive training seemed to provide an effective way for students learning and solving problems. Metacognition allowed students to use the prior knowledge acquired in the lessons in a flexible and strategic way. The metacognitive questions appeared to activate prior knowledge, analyse information and to self-monitor their progress by assessing and correcting their mistakes. The 2students had the habit of checking errors in the steps and correct the mistakes during solving problems. Besides, after solving the problems about the same topic, the students transferred the prior knowledge to the new acquired one. They might deduce the rules of calculation.
