Magntorn, Ola; Hellden, Gustav – Journal of Biological Education, 2007
This paper reports on a study of ecology teaching and learning in a Swedish primary school class (age 10-11 yrs). A teaching sequence was designed to help students read nature in a river ecosystem. The teaching sequence had a "bottom up" approach, taking as its starting point a common key organism--the freshwater shrimp. From this…

Mackinnon, Gregory R.; Keppell, Mike – Journal of Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia, 2005
Concept mapping (Novak & Gowin, 1984) has been used extensively as a graphic organiser in classroom teaching. This article addresses two particular approaches to using concept mapping that go beyond classroom planning into the realm of "idea-exchange" with concept mapping as mediator. The notion of "negotiative concept mapping" is examined in two…

Jensen, Jacquelyn W.; Winitzky, Nancy – 2002
Researchers use an array of measures to provide lenses and levels of magnification for exploring teacher candidates' thinking. This paper describes five measures in terms of their costs, benefits, and the kinds of data each yields. These measures include a demographic questionnaire, concept mapping, a learning questionnaire, stimulated recall…

Williamson Shaffer, David – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2004
This article analyzes collaboration in a computer-supported learning environment based on the professional practices of mediation and dispute resolution. In so doing, it explores the nature of collaborative learning in a setting marked by competition as much as cooperation. Interviews with students suggest that the processes of collaborative…

SenGupta, Saumitra – 1993
This paper presents a mixed-method evaluation design which utilizes concept mapping along with questionnaire and interviews. Recent developments in mixed-method evaluation have helped identify five purposes which mixed-method evaluation designs tend to serve. These are triangulation, complementarity, development, initiation, and expansion. The…
