Abstract
America 2000, yet another attempt to reform education, calls for a voluntary set of national achievement tests. If we agree with Ernest Boyer's philosophy that the goal of education is to turn out people who can think, then we need tests that will help us reach that goal. This article examines and defines concept maps, describes how concept maps are constructed, and explains why concept mapping is a viable tool for meaningful learning and understanding. In addition, it also compares concept maps with objective and essay exams and offers evaluation/scoring suggestions.
