Have you ever wondered what’s going on in your students’ heads as they grapple with difficult concepts? Having students create concept maps allow you to have a glimpse into the connections students are making among ideas. These graphic representations can help them to organize and synthesize their understanding of course content. It can also provide you with insights into their thinking or allow you to assess their understanding of key concepts. In this program you’ll learn more about the research bases underlying concept-mapping, as well as ways to use concept maps to help students meet your learning goals.
