MENTAL MAPS AND GEOCOGNITIVE REPRESENTATION: new instrumental and methodological possibilities for understanding places and landscapesMAPAS MENTALES Y REPRESENTACIÓN GEOCOGNITIVA: nuevas posibilidades instrumentales y metodológicas para entender lugares y paisajesRESUMOO objetivo do trabalho é apresentar uma reflexão sobre os processos geocognitivos concernentes aos mapas mentais e analisá-los a partir das categorias de análise geográficas lugar e paisagem, com a intenção de compreender o mundo vivido ali expresso. O trabalho está estruturado em três segmentos; e no primeiro deles se discute as categorias em questão, à luz dos paradigmas de interpretação da geografia humanista cultural. Num segundo momento problematiza-se sobre a Teoria do Desenvolvimento Cognitivo e a construção do conceito de geocognição; em seguida analisa-se a relevância dos Mapas Mentais como forma de representação geocognitiva. Por fim, apresenta se as considerações finais. Foram utilizados como procedimentos metodológicos na investigação: pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, com o aporte de recursos iconográficos, seguidas de contextualização e sistematização das informações e reflexão crítica sobre os conceitos e temas trabalhados.Palavras-chave: Mapas Mentais; Geocognição; Lugar; Paisagem; Geografia Humanista Cultural.ABSTRACTThe purpose of this paper is to present a reflection on the geocognitive processes in mental maps, and to analyze them from the point of view of geographical categories: Place and Landscape, with the intention of understanding the lived world expressed there. The research is structured in three moments: at first the categories of place and landscape are at issue in the light of cultural humanistic geography; in a second moment an explanation is made on the Theory of Cognitive Development and the construction of the concept of geo-cognition; next, the importance of the Mental Maps as a form of geocognitive representation is analyzed; and, finally, the conclusions are presented. For this purpose, the literature and documentary review and the contribution of iconographic resources were used as methodological tools.Keywords: Mind Maps; Geocognition; Place; Landscape; Humanist Geography.RESUMENEl objetivo de este artículo es presentar una reflexión sobre los procesos geocognitivos relacionados con los mapas mentales y analizarlos desde las categorías de análisis geográficas de lugares y paisajes, con la intención de comprender el mundo vivido allí expresado.

The aim of the study was to uncover the obstacles to the use of computerized mental maps in the teaching of social and national studies in the intermediate stage from the point of view of teachers in Asir teaching. The researcher used the descriptive method and the questionnaire as a tool for his research. The sample consisted of (90) randomly chosen teachers. The obstacles that hinder the use of computerized mental maps in the teaching of social and national studies, the most important of which are the following: The tool obtained an average of (3.06) high grade, and at the level of axes, the third axis (the constraints on the classroom environment) reached the highest average (3.88) (3.76), and the third axis (the obstacles related to content) with an average of (3.75) and finally, the first axis (the obstacles related to the teacher) with an average of (3.66) . In light of these results, some recommendations and proposals were presented, including work on providing the necessary equipment for modern teaching methods. To take care of preparing the teacher period of university preparation in an integrated manner in the theoretical and applied aspects, and encourage training and professional growth during service for teachers, especially with regard to the use of computerized mental maps.

Education plays a role in human life to prevent people from poverty, underdevelopment, and ignorance so that it is necessary to change the way of thinking of humans themselves to overcome these problems. The progress of the human mindset is a form of change and cannot be separated from the achievement of creativity. This article aims to describe and explain the use of mind maps in mathematics learning from a progressivism point of view through the learning process carried out from the primary and secondary education levels to produce creative products that can help students improve learning achievement through the role of the teacher as a facilitator and students as a learning center. This article uses literature study method, data is collected and analyzed as secondary data including books, journals and proceedings relevant to the topic. The results showed that the mind map method could be used by teachers and students to change the concept of thinking through active student involvement through the making of mathematics learning materials, addition and building space and the area of a circle in an attractive graphic form. Progressivism views that progress in thinking is a process of change and through the mindmaping learning method the concept of subject matter can be visualized in the form of a graphic infrastructure that can stimulate the right and left brains so that it can be useful to free students from the snare of rules when starting to learn. The conclusion of this study is a change in mindset that is in line with the viewpoint of progressivism philosophy is through a mind map learning model that can produce student creativity products and the role of the teacher as a facilitator can occur.

Racial prejudice, injustice, and discrimination against people of colored skin, especially African Americans, has become a global issue since the twenty century. Blacks are deprived of their rights regardless of their human natures and are disenfranchised from White’s societies due to their skin color which has put them as inferior and clownish creatures in White’s point of view. Although many anti-racist effort and speeches has done to solve racist issues and eliminate racism and its circumstances, still racism is alive and Blacks are suffering from it. Although, many White individuals accept themselves as anti-racist characters that color of skin does not matter to them, they still show prejudice and discrimination towards Blacks and cannot consider them as equal as themselves. A reason to such Whites’ thought and behavior is that they have faced this issue since their childhood and therefore they cannot change it because this attitude is entangled with their personality and is deeply ingrained in them. Thus, a way to stop and eliminate discrimination, prejudice, and injustice is to train children, the next generation, as anti-racist and color-blind characters. In this regard, it has been tried to investigate the role of children training in the elimination of social and racial discrimination in Harper Lee’s Go Set a Watchman (2015), which is sequel novel to her masterpiece To Kill a Mockingbird (1960). Moreover, Jean Piaget’s theory of Children’s Cognitive Development has been used for a better understanding of this investigation.

The article reveals such a way of using pedagogical technology as a mental map. The possibility of using it as a way to increase the effectiveness of the learning process is being investigated. The authors emphasize that the use of this pedagogical technology is an integral part of education in modern conditions. The technological essence of the mental map is revealed, which is distinguished by originality and effectiveness in active teaching methods. The comprehensive possibilities of using the mental map in educational activities, in particular on the example of the discipline "Geography", are considered. Software for developing mind maps is presented. The experience of using this technology made it possible to reveal that this method is useful for both the teacher and the student. It becomes obvious that the assimilation of theoretical material for freshmen is difficult (the influence of various factors affects), in this regard, the application of this method becomes effective. Individually created mental maps allow you to visually remember the material in the form of mapping. Application of the investigated method allows grouping a large flow of information material, structuring it and managing it. The material depicted schematically contains the main provisions of the topic being studied, replacing numerous words, using only the basic concepts and keywords. Revealed the regulatory and communicative function of the mental map.

The purpose of this study is to understand how users' perceptions of a system change as they adopt it, we con- ducted a qualitative-longitudinal study of the case of three small restaurant owners who implemented ERP-type soft- ware in their businesses. Method: The methodology used was based on the use of mental maps as tools for visual/ numerical analysis. The data to create the maps were provided from the transcriptions of the owner's interviews. Find- ings show that at first, individuals focus mainly on the benefits of the new system, but as they adopt it, dissatisfac- tion with the technology arises. Although in postimplementation, the positive evaluation of the system outweighs the dissatisfactions, interestingly, the latter outweighs the former in the intermediate stages of implementation. This is a novel result because there are no studies that describe this phenomenon. At the methodological level, the use of mind maps for analysis is novel in the MIS literature and could continue to be used in other qualitative-longitudinal studies.

O objetivo do artigo é apresentar a discussão entre Fichte e Schelling em torno do conflito entre o idealismo transcendental da doutrina-da-ciência e a filosofia-da-natureza do Identitätssystem (sistema-da-identidade). Buscamos compreender, de um ponto de vista fichteano, se e em que medida é possível afirmar que a doutrina-da-ciência é uma filosofia da reflexão, tal como entendida por Schelling. Para tanto, em um primeiro momento, serão expostas as críticas de Schelling a Fichte, como ele progressivamente se afasta em relação à filosofia transcendental e busca consolidar a filosofia-da-natureza. Em um segundo momento, daremos a palavra a Fichte e a seus apontamentos críticos em relação ao projeto filosófico de uma filosofia-da-natureza. Nossa análise limitar-se-á à correspondência entre os dois filósofos e aos textos escritos em torno do período de ruptura entre eles. No caso de Fichte, indo até 1804.The aim of this paper is to present the discussion between Fichte and Schelling around the conflict between the transcendental idealism of the doctrine of science and the philosophy of nature of the Identitätssystem. We seek to understand, under a Fichtean point of view, if and how far it is possible to state that the doctrine of science consists in a philosophy of reflection, such as Schelling states. For this, at first, will be exposed the Schelling’s critiques to Fichte, as the former progressively detaches himself from transcendental philosophy and consolidates a philosophy of nature. In a second moment, we will give the floor to Fichte’s critical notes related to the philosophical project of a philosophy of nature. Our analysis will be restraint to the correspondence between those two philosophers and to the texts written around this period of rupture between them. In the case of Fichte, this goes until 1804.

In line with socioconstructivist works analysing the impact of social interactions on cognitive development, the present study discusses how to capture, describe, and analyse the emergent co-production of new ideas or creative cognitive solutions. After introducing the methodologies that are currently used in this field, we recall the relevance of pragmatic analyses of conversations. We then identify several possible methodologies for probing and finely analysing the emergence of children’s new thinking, by cross-referencing third-person (i.e., from the researcher’s point of view) and first-person (i.e., from the children’s point of view, following an explicitation interview) analyses.
