Abstract

With rapid advances in learning technology, knowledge mapping tools have been claimed to facilitate teaching and have positive impact on learning. However, an important issue that has not been extensively investigated is the potential integrative uses of knowledge mapping tools. This study aims to explore the intersections of three major mapping tools: concept maps, argument maps, and topic maps. This scoping review provides researchers with an exploratory opportunity to conduct a preliminary mapping of existing literature. Selected papers were examined for their findings and suggestions regarding how different mapping tools can be used to complement each other. This scoping review may offer insights into the integrative applications of three knowledge mapping tools. We hope that these preliminary results across disciplines may serve for discussion basis to inform future studies in knowledge mapping tools and teaching.
