    The document discusses concept mapping, a technique developed by Joseph Novak in the 1960s based on Ausubel's theories of meaningful learning. A concept map is a diagram showing relationships among concepts as nodes and links. Concept maps are used to generate ideas, design complex structures, communicate ideas, aid learning by integrating new and old knowledge, and assess understanding. They are widely used in education and business for note taking, knowledge creation and transfer, collaborative modeling, and facilitating shared understanding.

     The concept mapping technique was developed
    by Prof. Joseph D. Novak at Cornell University in
    the 1960s.
     This work was based on the theories of David
    Ausubel, who stressed the importance of prior
    knowledge in being able to learn about new
    concepts.
     Novak concluded that "Meaningful learning
    involves the assimilation of new concepts and
    propositions into existing cognitive structures".
     A concept map is a diagram showing the
    relationships among concepts. They are graphical
    tools for organizing and representing knowledge.
     Concept mapping is a technique for representing
    knowledge in graphs. Knowledge graphs are
    networks of concepts.
     Networks consist of nodes and links. Nodes
    represent concepts and links represent the
    relations between concepts.
     Concepts and sometimes links are labeled. Links
    can be non, uni or bi-directional.
     Concepts and links may be categorized, they can
    be simply associative, specified or divided in
    categories such as causal or temporal relations.
     to generate ideas (brain storming, etc.);
     to design a complex structure (long texts,

    hypermedia, large web sites, etc.);


     to communicate complex ideas;
     to aid learning by explicitly integrating new

    and old knowledge;


     to assess understanding or diagnose

    misunderstanding.
    Concept maps are widely used in education and
    business. Uses include:

     Note taking and summarizing key concepts, their


    relationships and hierarchy from documents and
    source materials.
     New knowledge creation: e.g., transforming tacit
    knowledge into an organizational resource, mapping
    team knowledge.
     Collaborative knowledge modeling and the transfer of
    expert knowledge.
     Facilitating the creation of shared vision and shared
    understanding within a team or organization.
     Increasing meaningful learning.
     Communicating complex ideas and

    arguments.
     Examining the symmetry of complex ideas

    and arguments and associated terminology.


     Improving language ability.
     Knowledge Elicitation.
     Assessing learner understanding of learning

    objectives, concepts, and the relationship


    among those concepts.
