Metacognition theory has been interested in research since the 70s of the twentieth century in the world. It can be seen that the thinking process, perception and metacognition of students and mathematical competence is one of the focus of research on mathematics education. However, the problem that is always interested by researchers in mathematics education is how to develop mathematical competence? What factors influence this capacity development process? How to support students to become better math problem solvers, especially in math? To find solutions to the problems posed above, a number of studies in the world and in Vietnam have focused on the relationship between metacognition and problem solving; At the same time, find ways to apply metacognition in the process of teaching mathematics. This study focuses on the goal of developing learners' competencies; Especially for the goal of developing mathematical competence for high school students through Mathematics, there is a need to research and exploit the thinking and cognitive factors in learning Mathematics to find solutions to overcome these problems.
