Hello Dr. Pelley. I am studying advanced level Material Science. This is one of the best lectures I have seen on "Learning How To Learn". I perfectly fit the description of the "Intuitive Type Learner" that you have explained in this lecture. I can easily see the big picture but struggle a lot when recalling finer details. I had realised this problem of mine and hence was searching for a solution. During my search I have come across Concept Mapping and Mind Mapping. I was told by someone to try mind mapping for learning my subject. I was adviced that Mind Mapping helps in higher level processing of the information that is been studied which is similar to what concept mapping does. I was also told that the use of colours and images in Mind Maps greatly enhances the processing and recall. At the same time, some say that Mind Maps are NOT suitable for scientific subjects and Concept Maps are more suitable in this case. Others say that is it extremely difficult to recall a Concept Map. All these feedbacks have confused me. Apart from being a expert in Metacognition, you are Medical Expert. Hence I feel that you are the best person to take advice from. You have said in this lecture that you have tried various techniques and have found Concept Mapping as the best tool. Can you help me understand the benefits Concept Maps have over Mind Maps in learning complex scientific subjects? Thanks in anticipation.

Wow, active learning is tiring! using concept maps really taxed the front part of my brain as if I was doing the brain training n back game. It’s incredible I did feel as if I retained the material a lot better, thank you.

This gets better the more you do it. As you change the front brain by building more networked synapses, you will get faster. You will put less time into figuring it out and more time into "just doing it."

this is very helpful. Kindly, if you can explain how we can develop mind map of similarities and differences between 4 or more topics. For example, if i want to compare 4 to 5 drugs relationship, how would I be able to do that in a single map. thank you

How does one review their maps. Coming from the idea that space repetition testing using active recall helps long term memory. My issue is Once you do a concept map it’s done. Unless you maybe cover or hide the details of the map and see what child branches of knowledge that you remember.

Check the updated website link in the video information above. The menu on the left links you to directions for mapping titled E-Speak Mapping. I adopted this name because the last step in mapping is the review, but spoken out loud. Imagine that you are using the map to teach someone about the topic while they are looking at it. When you are able to speak your map, you are ready for the test. Remember that the magic is not in the map, but in constructing the map. The idea about hiding parts of a completed map is also another great way to help teach students about the topic. One more thing, a map isn't done until you reach room temperature. Until that point in time, you map will grow as you learn.

What application(s) do you recommend for making Concept Maps? e.g. Is there anything better than Scapple? Scapple is cheap and quite good but has v limited formatting and rather basic layout tools, and development stopped in 2013 at version 1.0...

Hi John, I recommend using your dominant hand and your choice of paper or other writing surface. If you want a program to make an electronic record and an ordinary scan won't do, then there is none better than the Cmap Tools program which is free at the IHMC website (searchable). The reason to do it by hand is that mapping is a tool that develops thinking and thinking is largely trial and error. Also, there is a sensory feedback from the actual construction and spacing (including the actual words used) that is processed during sleep to produce long term memory. Mapping produces self-directed learners this way and you can sell yourself in an interview with this knowledge. There are other ways that also use decision making and motor output from the brain, but none as efficient as mapping since maps are the ultimate exam review notes (from student feedback). Hope this helps.

Thanks. I did try Cmap Tools, however I couldn't work out how to remove the descriptions on the arrows. The problem is that there are times when you don't want descriptions on the arrows...

+treepjet , Hello treepjet. Yes, any subject that can be taught can be mapped. However, if the teaching is disorganized, the map will reflect that. Likewise, good teaching will allow you to produce a very useful map. My students never look at their notes again, once they have refined their map. The most important thing to remember is that the construction of a concept map requires you to organize the material provided to you by a teacher so that you can explain it out loud. At that point, you have learned what you mapped. It has become more than note taking; it has become a way of reading or a way of listening.

+SuccessTypes in Medical Education Thank you so much for your reply back! I was thinking more in terms of concept mapping in terms of studying for the MCAT. Would you believe it would be effective in using it in terms of that? I am mostly using review books which cover different subjects. Its so awesome that you replied back! Didnt think you would. Thank you Dr. Bubbles!

This concept map-making still doesn't make sense. I have no idea what goes in a bubble and how that's enough detail to get through medical school. They just look like a mess.

Devin, when I teach concept mapping the goal is not the details. In fact, details are a minor issue in medical education. The learning that the most successful med students practice is integration and making connections. These can be similarities and differences, but the most important are cause and effect relationships. If you only focused on cause and effect, you would cover almost all of medical education. Regarding what goes in a bubble, think of what you would highlight. Your comment suggests to me that your highlighting covers an entire paragraph because this is what detail obsessed students do. Your challenge is to work with a partner, a quick way to sharpen your thinking, and emphasize explanations and reasons with an "open book" policy. Go to my website and check out E-Speak Mapping for detailed directions for mapping and more explanation of how this approach to learning can combine with analyzing questions. The link is in the narrative above.
