System and method for learning concept map

Abstract

A system for creating the learning organizational tool known as a concept map to thereby facilitate learning includes a manipulation-sensing device with a wireless data transceiver, an information integration platform, and a data processing device. The wireless manipulating-sensing device allows users to physically manipulate the concept map and then transmit/receive data related to the results of the physical manipulation via a wireless network. The wireless manipulation-sensing device includes a plurality of conceptual modules for recording data in the process of learning a concept map, a plurality of connecting modules for recording data of the connection relations between the conceptual modules, and a plurality of connecting wires connected between the plurality of conceptual modules and the plurality of connecting modules to form connection relations therebetween. The information integration platform receives the results of the physical manipulation transmitted from the conceptual modules to form concept map information by translation. The data processing device receives the concept map information formed by the information integration platform. In addition, a method for learning a concept map using the system described above is further provided.
