Concept Maps and Annotated Drawings: A Comparative Study of Two Assessment Tools.

Bannister, Sarah; Atkinson, Hilary

Primary Science Review, n51 p3-5 Jan-Feb 1998

Use of concept mapping as an assessment tool allows links to be made between concepts, and shows both scientifically correct propositions and misconceptions. Annotated drawings offer an alternative form of expression to children who may hold ideas but find it difficult to express them in words or to recognize links between them. (PVD)
