subject: More Concept Maps
Joan (and others),

We are in the process of writing an article on using concept maps in
the science classroom. If you would like to receive a copy or comment
on early drafts, please email me directly!

I am excited about how much information you learn from students'
concept maps... if the mapping activity is designed correctly. Yes,
concept maps can be used pre/post, and even as formative assessments
along the way. The process of creating a concept map is a great
opportunity for personal reflection, and provides a great springboard
for further class discussion.

I can be reached at jvanides @ stanfordalumni.org for more information.

Best regards,

- Jim Vanides
