Concept Mapping (25 min)

We've learned a lot over the course of the semester, so let's review concepts and connect everything together in our last official activity of 375! In 4 different groups, choose a different section of whiteboard. In your group, draw a concept map that includes the following terms:

  • Fixed mindset vs. growth mindset
  • Deep learning
  • Strategic learning
  • Motivation
  • Mental models
  • Prior knowledge
  • Group work
  • Assessment
  • Misconceptions
  • Active learning
  • Learning objectives
  • Lesson plans
  • Bias
  • Bloom's taxonomy

You may include additional terms if you like. Connect the terms in your map with detailed descriptions.

  • Okay example: Learning objectives — they inform — lesson plans.
  • Better example: Learning objectives — they should probe a range of learning levels, they help align course material, and make it easier to form — lesson plans.

When you're finished, visit other group's boards and look at how much you've learned!
