Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research, we have implemented knowledge construction support system with kit-build concept map. Firstly, we gathered data of learner maps from practical uses in science learning in an elementary school, social study in an junior high school and social science in an collage. Based on analysis of the errors in kit-build concept maps and categorization of them, we have implemented support function for the errors in concept map building as support of knowledge construction. Through experimental evaluation, we have confirmed that support for mis-connected links is positive effect to the size and completeness of map. As or the support for un-connected links, it is effective to promote learner deeper comprehension of a learning material.
