Abstract :
This paper reports on work in progress in relation to the use of conceptual mapping to support deep and analytical thinking in developing project proposals. In addition to testing the role of conceptual mapping, a new framework for constructing conceptual maps is also being evaluated in this study. This research takes the form of a case study based on a module being taught at a second year undergraduate programme.
