| - | ===== Concept Mapping (Joseph Novak) ===== | ||
| - | Concept mapping is a [[learning_paradigms:|cognitivist learning model]] in [[http://www.ihmc.us/groups/jnovak/|Joseph Novak]]'s words described as "a **visual representation of the relationships between concepts** held by an individual, materials of a lecture, textbook, or laboratory exercise." **Concept maps should help both sides in the educational process** to learn more meaningfully. | ||

| - | Novak describes the concept map building process in following steps: | ||
| - | |||
| - | * **Identification of key concepts of the material** | ||
| - | * **Ranking the concepts** by placing most important ones at the top of the map | ||
| - | * **Adding other concepts** under the main ones | ||
| - | * **Connection of concepts by lines and labeling** those connections with linking words | ||
| - | * If desired **specific examples of concepts can also be added** below concept labels | ||
