| TEACHING DIVERSITY ONLINE: USING CONCEPT MAPS TO ENHANCE LEARNING OUTCOMES (2008) | |||||||||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||||||||
| Abstract. Diversity education is now a requirement for students on most college campuses in the United States. For this reason, there is a need to provide such courses in formats designed to accommodate the needs of an increasingly diverse learner pool. Concept maps have found increasing support not just for use in asynchronous learning environments but also with multicultural education. However, no study thus far has sought to examine the use of concept mapping as a pedagogical resource in teaching a diversity course online. This case study examines learning outcomes associated with the use of concept mapping in a course on the American Civil Rights Movement. Implications for practice and further research are considered. 1 | |||||||||||||||
