Using a metronome while you are learning a piece is very difficult, as it distracts from the primary effort really quite a lot. Using a metronome while you are practicing a piece is very good, and really helps mastery of the piece, as well as emphasizing good time. Using the metronome with the clicks on 2 and 4 (in 4/4 time) can be really useful if you are practicing a jazz piece.
