Concept Mapping ist eine Lernstrategie, die insbesondere das bedeutungsvolle Lernen unterstützt. Ziel dieser Studie war es, den Nutzen von kognitiven und/oder metakognitiven Prompts auf den Lernerfolg beim Lernen durch Concept Mapping zu untersuchen. Die teilnehmenden Schülerinnen und Schüler (N = 112, Durchschnittsalter: 17.20 Jahre) erzielten einen signifikant besseren Lernerfolg, wenn sie durch Prompts beim Anfertigen einer Concept Map unterstützt wurden. Gemischte Prompts waren dabei im Vergleich zu nur kognitiven bzw. nur metakognitiven Prompts nicht effektiver, offensichtlich regte bereits die Verfügbarkeit von Prompts die Lernenden zu systematischerem Lernverhalten an. Als Fazit dieser Studie lässt sich festhalten, dass Prompts als Hilfestellung bei der Anwendung einer neuen Lerntechnik sehr wohl positive Effekte haben. Eine Follow-Up-Messung ohne Prompts zeigte jedoch, dass die einmalige Unterstützung durch Prompts nicht ausreichte, um die Lerntechnik weiterhin selbstständig erfolgreich anzuwenden.

The chapter begins with the origins of concept maps as a tool to promote constructivist learning, an educational philosophy and practice, and is followed by a concept map taxonomy. A definition of concept maps is provided and the main differences between Mind Maps©, Thinking Maps®, and Concept Maps are discussed with Thinking Maps classified as a type of concept map that is separate and different from both other maps. The chapter then offers a second definition of the term “concept maps,” with a detailed discussion of Thinking Maps resulting in a new taxonomy of knowledge or concept maps. The authors then investigate integrating concept maps with cognitive styles theory to determine if concept mapping might have a neuro-psychological basis and if mapping theory can be related to different academic fields and professions. The chapter concludes that the use of concept mapping can promote more holistic and effective teaching, learning, and practice in STEM education.

Concept maps are well recognized as being an effective tool for helping students organize and construct their knowledge. However, previous studies have also indicated the difficulty encountered by young students in concept mapping. Therefore, how to provide an efficient strategy for enhancing students' learning achievement using concept mapping is worth studying. The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of the peer tutoring-based concept mapping approach on students' learning performance. A 5-week experiment was conducted in an elementary school social studies course in southern Taiwan. The participants were two classes of fifth graders. One class was the experimental group consisting of 33 students provided with a computerized concept map learning model based on peer tutoring, whereas the other class was the control group consisting of 32 students learning with a conventional computerized concept mapping approach. It was found that the learning achievements and the concept map scores of the students who learned with the peer-tutoring strategy were significantly higher than those students who learned with the conventional computerized concept mapping approach. Meanwhile, the result also indicated that the innovative approach is significantly helpful for improving the students' learning attitudes and technology acceptance levels.

This chapter introduces portfolio system design perspectives that incorporate concept mapping and the map-based user interface. It also presents a prototype of a portfolio system that has been developed based on the discussed perspectives, along with its capacities and the lessons learned in the design and pilot-testing processes. The author argues that a concept map-based design can enhance a portfolio system, and a concept map as a visual aid can be an efficient user interface for students to better organize, present, archive, and retrieve multimedia contents. This chapter will help educators understand the benefits of incorporating the principles of concept mapping in the design of portfolio systems, and how the system capacities may support constructivist learning environments and qualitative assessment strategies linked to curriculum standards.

10506 Background: Proliferating knowledge domains have prompted medical schools to reconsider how best to facilitate multidisciplinary learning. Concept maps promote knowledge retention and integration; however, the feasibility and utility of integrating concept maps into a medical student oncology curriculum as a learning and assessment tool have not previously been described. Methods: In 2015-2016, all 152 second-year University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) medical students in a hematology/oncology course produced a concept map about a single cancer type over four weeks. Two of three graders independently scored each map using a standard rubric. We used linear regression to calculate the Pearson correlation coefficient between graders and between concept map scores and preclinical examination scores, USMLE Step 1 scores, and clerkship grades. We sent course evaluations to 50 randomly selected students (as is typical in the UCSF curriculum) and performed an inductive content analysis of open-ended comments about concept mapping. Results: We graded all 152 concept maps. Inter-rater reliability was excellent ( r = 0.95 or greater between the graders). Concept map scores did not correlate with preclinical or clinical performance. 43 of 50 students (86%) rated the helpfulness of concept mapping on a 5-point agreement scale (1=strongly disagree; 5=strongly agree). The median rating was 3, and the mean (SD) rating was 2.81 (1.44). 22 of 50 (44%) students submitted comments about concept mapping. Some (9 of 22) found concept mapping useful, expressing themes such as “learning the material better” and delving into the “details.” Others (7 of 22) did not, expressing themes such as preferring “other study methods” and feeling that concept mapping was “busy work” or “stressful.” Conclusions: Integrating concept maps into a medical student oncology curriculum was feasible, and we demonstrated reliability evidence as an assessment tool. Future studies should explore whether integrating concept maps earlier in medical school, producing multiple concept maps over time with training and feedback, or developing concept maps collaboratively may increase utility as a learning and assessment tool.

Background and objective: Concept mapping is a powerful instructional tool in the clinical settings that improves competency of undergraduate nursing students in interprets situations, problem solving, decision making and critical thinking in different circumstances. Also enable them to provide optimal comprehensive care for clients. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of concept mapping on problem solving skills, competence in the clinical settings and knowledge among undergraduate nursing students.Methods: Design and Setting: A quasi-experimental design was used and data were collected from Medical & Surgical Nursing Department and Community Health Nursing Department labs in the Faculty of Nursing, Tanta University. Sample: Random sample of 60 undergraduate nursing students which are selected by using simple random method who are divided into; thirty students from second year and thirty students from fourth year. Tools: Four tools were used for data collection: Tool (I): Structure questionnaire sheet to assess students’ knowledge regarding concept mapping, Tool (II): Case study rubric for assessing concept map, Tool (III): Problem solving skills assessment sheet and Tool (IV): Perception of students about using of concept map.Results: As a result of this research, there were significant improvements among students knowledge about concept map, simulation case study rubric and problem solving skills, in addition to more than three quarter from students had positive perceptions regarding application of concept mapping in the clinical settings.Conclusions and recommendation: Based on the findings of the study, there were significant improvement in the score of knowledge, simulation case study rubric and problem solving skills post application of concept mapping in the clinical setting. Therefore, it is necessary to improve wide-spreading of concept map training guidelines for large number of undergraduate nursing students at the level of the nursing faculties.

Concept maps have been proposed as a tool that can help develop and exercise higher-order thinking skills, including critical thinking, reflective thinking, synthesis, analysis, among others. In this paper, we review how the different aspects of constructing a concept map can help develop and exercise these skills, and discuss why most students never reach the level of concept mapping skills required to exercises their higher-order thinking skills, in what we propose is a case of pedagogic frailty involving the ‘Pedagogy and Discipline’ and ‘Locus of Control’ dimensions.

Concept mapping is a tool used for representing knowledge in an organized format. It consists of concepts that are encircled and a connecting line with linking words or phrases represents the relationships between the different sub-concepts. Joseph D. Novak developed the concept maps in the 1970s. Mendia et al., 2008 have used this tool that promotes meaningful learning in math with secondary school students. Sharma, 2014 has used this tool for student’s achievement and concept retention for higher secondary student. This paper is regarding effectiveness of concept maps in concept retention among secondary school students. It is an action research conducted with ten students. The concept map was prepared using software called as Cmap. The institute that has developed this software is Institute for Human and Machine Cognition. The concept of structure of DNA was taken to teach the students using concept map. A pretest, posttest, and delayed test were conducted to observe the students understanding and retention of the concept. The results were analyzed using SPSS software. It was observed that the understanding and retention of the concept among the students was visible after using the concept mapping strategy
