    "abstract": "Metacognitive skills are critical in learning but difficult to\nteach. Thus the question becomes how can we facilitate\nmetacognitive tutoring? We present an exploratory learning\nenvironment called MILA-T with embedded metacognitive\ntutors imitating five functional roles of teachers in\nclassrooms. We tested MILA–T in a controlled experiment\nwith 237 middle school students. We examine the impact of\nMILA–T on the models of a natural phenomenon constructed\nby the students. We find that students with access to MILA–T\nwrote better evidential justifications for their models, and\nthus, deliver better-justified models for the phenomenon. We\nalso find that these improvements persisted during a transfer\ntask. These results lend support for organizing metacognitive\ntutoring around the functional roles of teachers for supporting\ninquiry-driven modeling",
