Abstract :
In this paper, we present a framework associated with the development of analytic and synthetic thinking that is also related to improving learner creativity. In this framework, the whole concept map is treated as a structure, the characteristics of which the learner has to learn to improve, similarly every proposition is treated as an entity, the characteristics of which express the creativity of the learner.
