Can we construct a conceptual network with a tablet computer?

Saša Kregar, Simona Slavič Kumer, Zavod RS za šolstvo

How important is it to know how our students think, organise and connect knowledge? In the Open Space partcipants will construct conceptual networks, and experience how we can find out established ways of pupils’ thinking and understanding, and how a teacher can promote the organization and integration of knowledge. We will use freely available applications for building conceptual networks on tablets. Based on familiar topic we will discover our own way of thinking and consequently develop a conceptual network. During activities participants will also learn about different applications for the creation of conceptual networks, learn how and when to use them, and identify the usability of applications in the classroom.
