Using Concept Maps with Trainee Physics Teachers

Journal Article Detail Page

written by Peter Adamczyk and Mike Wilson

This article describes how the technique of concept mapping can be useful for identifying gaps in pre-service teachers' knowledge. The validity of the technique was tested using blind interviews with a representative sample of eight trainees. This technique has potential as a valuable self-diagnostic tool for teachers teaching outside their area of specialization.
