Concept mapping in problem-based learning discussions improved nursing students' ability to analyze complex patient data and understand concept relationships. While overall scores showed no significant difference, the method aids in evaluating critical thinking processes.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Education
  • Cognitive Science

Background:

  • Student anxiety regarding learning is prevalent in Taiwan.
  • Problem-based learning (PBL) uses patient scenarios to drive information acquisition and problem-solving.
  • Concept mapping enhances critical thinking and organization of complex patient data for holistic care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine the impact of concept mapping within PBL discussions on nursing students' learning outcomes.
  • To assess how concept mapping influences the analysis of complex patient information and understanding of relationships.

Main Methods:

  • An experimental design with random assignment to control and experimental groups.
  • The experimental group engaged in six PBL scenario discussions over 16 weeks.
  • The control group received traditional course instruction.

Main Results:

  • The experimental group demonstrated significantly higher scores in proposition and hierarchy aspects of concept maps.
  • No significant differences were observed in cross-link or example scores between groups.
  • Overall total scores did not reach statistical significance, with most students scoring low.

Conclusions:

  • Concept mapping strategies can effectively analyze individual student thinking processes.
  • It aids in identifying key concepts, understanding relationships (cause-effect, part-whole), and reviewing logical connections.
  • Concept mapping facilitates the revision of conceptual structures based on theory and experience.
