</font><p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0pt;text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US"><font color="#000000" face="Times New Roman" size="3">Over the past forty years there have been numerous published studies
that have illustrated learning gains among students who have been introduced to
concept mapping in their classes – particularly in early-years and secondary
education. This focus reflects the context of much of the early research
conducted by Joseph Novak and colleagues at Cornell University that was looking
to develop science education within compulsory education. Since then, many
studies have reported quasi-experimental studies to show how the introduction
of concept mapping has enhanced student learning when compared with traditional
teaching environments. </font></span></p><font color="#000000" face="Times New Roman" size="3">

between students who have used concept mapping and those who have not, to describe
advances in the theorization and application of concept mapping in
post-compulsory education. </font></span></p><font color="#000000" face="Times New Roman" size="3">
