概念图是图形工具，已用于教育和培训的各个方面，用于组织和表示知识。当学习者构建概念图时，就会促进有意义的学习。 CmapTools等基于计算机的概念图软件进一步扩展了概念图的用途，大大增强了该工具的潜力，有利于实现以概念图为中心的学习环境。在本章中，我们简要介绍了概念图及其理论基础，并说明了当它与 CmapTools 和互联网相结合时如何能够改善学习环境。我们以巴拿马全国范围内的“Proyecto Conectate al Conocimiento”为例，说明概念图如何与技术一起被数百所学校采用，作为增强有意义学习的手段。
Concept maps are graphical tools that have been used in all facets of education and training for organizing and representing knowledge. When learners build concept maps, meaningful learning is facilitated. Computer-based concept mapping software such as CmapTools have further extended the use of concept mapping and greatly enhanced the potential of the tool, facilitating the implementation of a concept map-centered learning environment. In this chapter, we briefly present concept mapping and its theoretical foundation, and illustrate how it can lead to an improved learning environment when it is combined with CmapTools and the Internet. We present the nationwide "Proyecto Conectate al Conocimiento" in Panama as an example of how concept mapping, together with technology, can be adopted by hundreds of schools as a means to enhance meaningful learning.
