This research focuses on evaluating students’ metacognitive patterns using reflection writing through the lens of epistemic network analysis. Metacognition plays a vital role by allowing learners to evaluate their thought processes, enhance their understanding of how they learn, and develop motivational control skills. Understanding students’ metacognitive patterns has the potential to provide significant insights into their learning strategies, assisting instructors in designing effective approaches. This study aims to analyse students’ metacognitive patterns, implementing a codebook based on metacognitive phenomena and epistemic network analysis. Preliminary findings are presented in this poster. Findings indicate that students’ inclination to engage in reflective writing differs depending on the types of reflection questions presented to them. This study contributes to developing our understanding of metacognition in an educational context and emphasizes the importance of designing reflection questions to foster students’ metacognitive skills.
