Concept Mapping: A Graphical System for Understanding
the Relationship between Concepts (DIGEST, Eric)
Beatriz, Camila, Jo達o, Hamilton
Definition and structure
 A concept map is a graphical representation where nodes (points or
vertices) represent concepts, and links (arcs or lines) represent the
relationships between concepts. The concepts, and sometimes the links,
are labeled on the concept map. The links between the concepts can be
one-way, two-way, or non-directional. The concepts and the links may
be categorized, and the concept map may show temporal
or causal relationships between concepts.
Concept mapping purposes:
 To generate ideas (brainstorming);
 To design complex structures (long texts, hypermedia, large web
sites);
 To communicate complex ideas;
 To aid learning by explicitly integrating new and old knowledge; and
 To assess understanding or diagnose misunderstanding.
Advantages of concept mapping
 Visual representation has several advantages:
 Visual symbols are quickly and easily recognized;
 Minimum use of text makes it easy to scan for a word, phrase, or the
general idea; and
 Visual representation allows for development of a holistic
understanding that words alone cannot convey.
Applications of concept mapping
 (1) Creativity Tool
 (2) Hypertext Design Tool
 (3) Communication Tool
 (4) Learning Tool
 (5) Assessment Tool
