NURSING PICO QUESTION- Create a CONCEPT MAP

Examples of Concept Mapping

Notes on Concept Mapping

· Concept maps provide a unique opportunity for students to share ideas through team-based learning in online classes

· A concept map is a type of graphic organizer used to help students organize and represent knowledge of a subject.

· It is a visual illustration of a variety of concepts and their connections with other ideas

· Concept maps begin with a main idea (or concept) and then branch out to show how that main idea can be broken down into specific topics.

· The map begins with a central shape (usually larger than the others), which contains the main idea. Specific topics are then added, removed, or moved during the brainstorming process until a group consensus is reached.  There is no right or wrong in the concept mapping process!  It simply helps you to organize your thoughts on paper.

Here are some examples of concept maps. You can also see video on how to create concept map: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYtoZRmWLBc
