Exploring concept maps for meaningful teaching and learning of mathematics in grade 6

Mampane, Marungwane Batseba January 2013 (has links)
Thesis ( M.ED. (Mathematics)) --University of Limpopo, 2013 / This study used case study design to explore concept maps for meaningful teaching and learning of mathematics in Grade 6 class. The purpose of the study was to reflect on the usage of concept maps to promote meaningful teaching and learning of mathematics in Grade 6. Eighty seven (87) learners participated in the study. Data were collected through transcripts of learners’ work and interviews. Interviews were conducted to get more information on learners’ concept maps. Learners drew concept maps on three different sessions on different topics namely: fractions, measurement and angles. A list of concepts was supplied for each topic. 10 learners’ concept maps and 2 interview transcripts were analysed. Mark schedules were also used to check learners’ performance. Results showed that learners used varied number of links to connect concepts and that there was an increase in the number and quality of propositions made. Concept maps proved to be useful in enhancing meaningful teaching and learning of mathematics in Grade 6 class.
