June 22, 2006... Introduction
When I began my graduate studies in 1952 at University of Minnesota, the only psychology of learning presented was behavioral psychology, based largely on research with rats, cats and other animals. The only philosophy of...
Concept maps: an essential tool for teaching and learning to learn science.
June 22, 2006... Abstract
This article is meant to offer math teachers a possibility to initiate their own study of concept maps, a powerful heuristic tool designed by Joseph Novak, on the ground that this tool can effectively help university students to...
Developing a more conceptual understanding of matrices & systems of linear equations through concept mapping and vee diagrams.
June 22, 2006... Abstract
The paper discusses one of the case studies of a multiple-case study teaching experiment conducted to investigate the usefulness of the metacognitive tools of concept maps and vee diagrams (maps/diagrams) in illustrating,...
