Types of Conceptual Learning Meaningful Learning New concepts are linked to existing knowledge in a highly integrated framework of ideas Rote Learning New concepts are minimally linked to existing knowledge and are stored in an arbitrary, verbatim and nonsubstantive fashion From: Mintzes J. Concept Mapping in College Science. Mintzes J and Leonard W, eds. Handbook of College Science Teaching. NSTA Press, 2006.

What is a Concept Map? A 2D node-link-node diagram that depicts the most important concepts and propositions in a knowledge domain A network of propositions where related concepts are interlinked by labeled lines

Concept Map of Concept Mapping Modified from: Novak JD & Canas AJ (2006) http//cmap.ihmc.us/Publications/Research Papers/TheoryUnderlyingConceptMaps.pdf

Concept Maps as Measuring Tools Task Student Response Format Scoring System

Mapping Tasks Fill-in skeleton map Fill-in nodes (concepts) Fill-in links (verbs) Selected or free response Self generated Concepts provided De novo

How can Concept Maps be Evaluated or Scored? Holistically or qualitatively Quantitatively by scoring rubrics Structural Complexity Content Validity Comparison with expert maps

Scoring Concept Maps

Structural Scoring Method First level of Hierarchy Second level of Hierarchy Propositions score 1 x 8 = 8 Hierarchies score 5 x 2 = 10 Cross-links score 10 x 1 = 10 Examples score 1 x 2 = 2 Total = 30 McClure, JR et al. J. Res. Sci. Teach. 36:475, 1999

Relational Scoring Method West, DC et al. Med. Educ. 36:820, 2002

Advantages of Concept Mapping for Assessing Student Learning Makes visible the complex structure of student’s declarative knowledge Uncovers student misunderstandings Reveals student conceptual change
