AbstractConcept mapping is way of representing the organization of knowledge. It is a visual graphic, a web diagram for exploring knowledge and gathering and sharing information. Concept maps are two dimensional representations of cognitive structures showing the hierarchies and the interconnections of concepts involved in a discipline or sub discipline. It consists of nodes or cells that contain a concept or question and links. The links are denoted by the direction with an arrow or symbol. Labeled links explain the relationship between the nodes, whereas the arrow marks describes the direction of the relationship. Instructors and students reported satisfaction from use of concept maps in the educational process. Teaching with the aid of concept maps has been incorporated as an innovative and viable teaching method in nursing education.
