Abstract

In the framework of kit -build conc ept map, (1) a goal map is prepared by a teacher, (2) parts of the map is generated by decomposing the goal map, and then, (3) a learner makes a map (a learner map) by combining the parts. The learner map is diagnosed by comparing with the goal map. The di fferences between the learner map and the goal map should be resolved by the learner to complete the learner ’s map building. In this research , we have investigated a way to support the learner to resolve the dif ferences. Based on the analysis of learner ’s map building behavior, we have proposed three kinds of hints for learners, that is, (I) concept group -centered building, (II) specific concept -centered building, and (III) recently connected concept -centered building . We have implemented a function to gene rate these hints based on the learner ’s building history and conducted a preliminary evaluation of the function .
