Abstract

A concept map is a graphical representation of a person's (student's) knowledge of a domain. Concept maps have been used in educational settings for some time and many computer-based implementations of interactive concept map building tools exist. These concept mapping tools often provide for a solely propositional, primarily textual, knowledge representation scheme and do not fully capitalize on the functionality offered by the computational medium. In this paper, we motivate the enhancement of "traditional" computer-based concept mapping tools with dynamic multimedia-sound, video, and animated images-which offer representational capabilities that are analogous to human knowledge representation mechanisms.
