Concept mapping is a powerful educational tool that facilitates students' organization and integration of knowledge, leading to improved understanding and retention. Numerous studies have highlighted the potential of concept mapping to enhance students' achievement. However, comprehensive quantitative analyses focusing on its impact specifically…

Learning programming is a complex process that requires understanding abstract concepts and solving problems efficiently. To support and motivate students, educators can use technology-enhanced learning (TEL) in the form of visual tools for knowledge mapping. Mytelemap, a prototype tool, uses TEL to organize and visualize information, enhancing…

This study aimed to explore the effects of integrating learning-related animations and anthropomorphic warm-colored multidimensional concept maps into multimedia learning materials to stimulate positive emotions in university students and to investigate whether these materials could improve their learning achievements. The research method employed…

Concept mapping is an active learning strategy promoting self-directed learning. The intellectual involvement in the preparation of concept mapping is a learning process. We tested the utility of concept mapping in improving self-directed learning among medical graduate students in Biochemistry. The study was conducted among first-year…

Teaching computer programming language remotely presents particular difficulties due to its requirement for abstract and logical thinking. There is a dearth of research specifically examining the potential factors that determine student performance when distance self-learning is conducted for programming language education. This study aims to…

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of concept maps on science achievement among elementary and secondary education students, including low-achieving students. A systematic search located 55 studies about concept mapping in science achievement published in peer-reviewed journals and dissertations between 1980 and 2020. We extracted 58…

This study examined the effects of concept maps on Senior School students' achievement in ecology in Ogbomoso, Nigeria. Quasi-experimental design was employed. The population for the study was all SSII Biology students in Ogbomoso South. Four intact classes of 267 students (115 males and 152 females) were sampled. The instrument was Biology…

A concept map is a visualisation of a group of related concepts with their relationships identified by directed arrows, which can be viewed as an externalisation of a schema encoded in a learner's long-term memory. Concept maps have become popular learning tools in various educational settings. However, the existing research has not fully explored…

Background/purpose: The purposes of this study were 1) to examine the effectiveness of concept mapping on Grade 10 students' literary analysis skills, 2) to study the participants' satisfaction with concept mapping in learning literary analysis skills, and 3) to establish the construct validity of the learning management plan through confirmatory…

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education is attracting increasing attention, but how to improve students' STEM learning achievement is still a big challenge. In the process of learning, students actively set learning goals, organize learning content, set learning standards, and independently adapt learning strategies and…

This interdisciplinary, conceptual analysis addresses the nature and benefits of artistic processes in learning and work. While recognizing various forms of artistry, the emphasis is on visual-spatial thinking. The benefits of this kind of thinking in academic and professional activities include the simplification of massively complex writing,…

A deep understanding of the learning level of online learners is a critical factor in promoting the success of online learning. Using knowledge structures as a way to understand learning can help analyze online students' learning levels. The study used concept maps and clustering analysis to investigate online learners' knowledge structures in a…

This study aims to determine the effect of teaching the "Cell and Divisions" unit in the science course with concept maps on the academic achievement of 7th grade middle school students. In order to achieve the stated purpose, a mixed method approach using an explanatory sequential design was used. The study group of the research…

The purpose of this study was to evaluate high school students' performance in analyzing complex arguments with the support of an off-the-shelf argument mapping software, Rationale™, which provides diagramming tools with guided prompts. This study attempts to: (1) evaluate the quality of student's argument maps in terms of structural…

Contributions: A concept-map-based remedial learning system is presented to enhance students' grasp of the learning concepts of the IEEE floating-point standard and microprocessor without interlocked pipeline stages (MIPSs) encoding according to their understanding of these learning concepts. Background: Concept maps have been used to represent…
