Concept mapping as a follow-up strategy to learning from texts: what characterizes good and poor mappers? (2008, background): “In particular, students with low verbal abilities have been shown to benefit from studying such worked-out maps (O'Donnell et al. 2002; Rewey et al. 1989).”
The ICAP Framework: Linking Cognitive Engagement to Active Learning Outcomes (2014, unknown): “More than 500 studies have investigated the effectiveness and applications of concept mapping (e.g., Novak, 1990; Novak & Gowin, 1984; O’Donnell, Dansereau, & Hall, 2002 ) .”
Evidence–Based Strategies for Improving the Reading Comprehension of Secondary Students: Implications for Students with Learning Disabilities (2012, methodology): “The use of semantic maps reduce WM overload and facilitate retrieval of information by representing the relationship among concepts (O’Donnell, Dansereau, & Hall, 2002).”
Results and Implications of a 12-Year Longitudinal Study of Science Concept Learning (2005, background): “Perhaps the best known of these lessons in the science education community were lessons dealing with the planet Earth and gravity developed by Joseph Nussbaum ( Nussbaum & Novak, 1976 ).”
Learning by Doing Versus Learning by Viewing: Three Experimental Comparisons of Learner-Generated Versus Author-Provided Graphic Organizers (2007, background): “Significant contributions of specific graphic organizer forms have been made for concept maps (Novak & Gowin, 1984), knowledge maps (O’Donnell et al., 2002), matrices (Robinson, 1998), and various other visual organizers (reviewed by Vekiri, 2002).”
Uncovering students’ thinking about thinking using concept maps (2009, background): “” Studying teachers, Ritchhart (2002) found that teachers’ conceptions of thinking shaped the way they tried to promote students’ thinking.”
