Peer reviewedTrowbridge, John E.; Wandersee, James H. – Journal of College Science Teaching, 1996
Explores the use of concept mapping in a college course on evolution and the effect of the use of graphics in the instructional process on the construction of a concept map. Results indicate a positive correlation between concept map scores and the number of graphics used by the instructor during lecture. (JRH)

Peer reviewedGoodyear, Rodney K. – Professional School Counseling, 2002
Employees a concept-mapping procedure to develop a classification of young men who have been responsible for one or more teen pregnancies. Results confirm that it is possible to cluster these men into different types according to their motivations and other attributes. Discusses how school counselors may use these results to develop appropriate…

Peer reviewedKankkunen, Markku – Learning Environments Research, 2001
Considers the problem of how to track a student's real progress in learning and evaluates the success of concept mapping in constructing a learning environment in a Finnish primary school. Highlights include the semiotic paradigm developed by Charles Sanders Peirce; and results of a longitudinal study. (Author/LRW)

Peer reviewedTrowbridge, John E.; Wandersee, James H. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1994
Undergraduates (n=25) participated in a study designed to describe and evaluate the use of concept mapping in teaching a college course on evolution; determine whether students' concept maps reveal "critical junctures" in learning as the course unfolds; and assess the impact of concept mapping on students' study practices and on…

Peer reviewedShern, David L.; And Others – Evaluation and Program Planning, 1995
Concept mapping was used to assess the fidelity of an experimental program model for psychiatrically disabled street dwellers. Concept maps portrayed the program as conceptualized by its Boston University developers and program staff. Quantitative and descriptive analyses of the maps indicated good fidelity of model transfer. (SLD)

Peer reviewedOkebukola, Peter Akinsola – Educational Psychology: An International Journal of Experimental Educational Psychology, 1992
Describes a study of concept mapping as a means of learning problem-solving skills. Concludes that the concept mapping subjects were significantly more successful at solving biological test questions than were the controls. Reports no significant differences between cooperative and individual mapping and mixed results for gender. (DK)

Peer reviewedNewsom-Stewart, Mhora – Journal of Agricultural Education, 1994
Participants in the Cornell Cooperative Extension 4-H Youth Development Program ranked concept maps of the meaning of the program's new vision and mapped their own perceptions. Differing perspectives were refined into a shared vision and highlighted the need for understanding client characteristics and the social climate of the program. (SK)

Peer reviewedGilmore, Michael J.; Murphy, Joseph – Educational Administration Quarterly, 1991
Investigates classroom environments and sense making within classrooms, using causal mapping techniques. Develops concept structures for classrooms, based on unbiased interviews. A homogeneous conception of classrooms is flawed, because participating fifth graders used highly individualistic concepts or labels to describe classroom environments.…

Peer reviewedMcDonald, Sharon; Stevenson, Rosemary J. – Journal of Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia, 1999
Describes two studies of college students that examined the effects of navigational aids on navigation and learning in hypertext. The first examined the effects of spatial maps and textual contents lists on students' ability to locate information; the second experiment compared a spatial map, a conceptual map and no aid on both navigation and…

Peer reviewedChmielewski, Todd L.; Dansereau, Donald F.; Moreland, Jeremy L. – Journal of Experimental Education, 1998
The role common region (CR) plays in acquiring scientific information from node-link displays was studied by testing 88 subjects under conditions of knowledge maps demonstrating or not demonstrating CR. Field-dependent subjects scored better than the field-independent subjects for maps demonstrating CR, whereas the opposite was true for maps not…
