Abstract	Two learning strategies are discussed: (1) fluent and creative idea-production involving concepts and problems, and (2) metacognition, or students' awareness of and direction of their thinking. The sample included college students, as well as teachers who used these strategies in elementary and secondary mathematics classrooms. Techniques for increasing flexible and original thinking were examined, along with levels of self-direction or autonomous learning. Specific problem-solving exercises are described, as well as the students' and teachers' reactions to the problems. The effects of idea production on learning, self-direction, and transfer are discussed. (GDC)
