Both human learners and Case-Based Reasoning systems have
applied metacognitive strategies such as self-questioning to
improve the learning process. Whereas case-based reasoning
systems do not allocate attention to reasoning strategies in
order to facilitate strategy selection, previous work on attention in human thinking has focused on the selection of domain
objects. We describe a computational model of metacognitive
attention which integrates metacognitve approaches in case based reasoning with the concept of attention which is applied
to the reasoning process itself. An example of our implementation, lULJAN, will illustrate the process of allocating metacognitive attention
