This study delves into the utilization of concept mapping as a strategic tool within problem-based learning (PBL) to enhance students' problem-solving skills, metacognitive awareness, and self-directed learning abilities. Concept mapping, a visual representation of knowledge structures, is explored as a means to cultivate and refine students' problem-solving capabilities, preparing them for challenges in various domains.
This study delves into the utilization of concept mapping as a strategic tool within problem-based learning (PBL) to enhance students' problem-solving skills, metacognitive awareness, and self-directed learning abilities. Concept mapping, a visual representation of knowledge structures, is explored as a means to cultivate and refine students' problem-solving capabilities, preparing them for challenges in various domains. Additionally, the research investigates how concept mapping within a PBL context promotes metacognitive awareness, helping students become more conscious of their learning strategies and enabling them to identify gaps in understanding. Moreover, the study explores the role of concept mapping in empowering self-directed learning, fostering autonomy and a deeper sense of ownership over students' educational journeys. The insights gained from this research not only inform instructional design practices, providing evidence-based strategies for enhancing problem-based learning through concept mapping but also contribute to the broader educational research discourse, offering valuable perspectives on effective teaching and learning strategies.

| Concept Mapping: as a Tool for Problem Based Learning | Other | Concept mapping is a visual representation and organizational tool that illustrates the relationships between concepts, ideas, and information. It involves creating a graphical depiction of knowledge, typically using nodes or boxes to represent concepts and connecting lines or arrows to signify the relationships between them. The central concept or main idea is often positioned in the center of the map, with subsidiary concepts branching out from it. These maps serve as a comprehensive overview of a subject, highlighting the hierarchical structure and interconnectedness of various elements. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| improving students' metacognitive awareness | Nursing students exposed to the concept mapping technique exhibited a higher score in the metacognitive awareness skills inventory ( total scores ranging from 30: 150 and a higher score of more than 90 indicating higher Metacognitive Awareness) than those not exposed to concept mapping. | 2 months |
| improving students' Problem-Based Learning | Nursing students exposed to the concept mapping technique exhibited a higher score on the problem-solving skills questionnaire( total scores range from 28 to 140 and higher scores more than 56 indicating higher problem-solving skills) than students not exposed to concept mapping. | 2 months |
