Abstract:
The present study explored the effect of the concept mapping strategy on the cognitive processes in secondary mathematics achievement. The researcher used a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest equivalent group design. The subjects were the students of Class-IX comprising both boys and girls. The sample had 100 students divided into two groups: a control group of 50 students and an experimental group of 50 students on the basis of matching by Raven’s Progressive Matrices intelligence test. The teaching learning process was carried out over three months by the researcher utilising both traditional and concept mapping strategies. As a tool, the researcher made achievement test covering the Class-IX mathematics textbook of the West Bengal Board of Secondary Education in India was employed. According to the findings of the study, students who were exposed to the concept mapping strategy performed much better than those who were studied by traditional method. The current study demonstrates that the concept mapping technique has a considerable influence on cognitive processes (applying, analysing, evaluating and creating) as well as higher order thinking in mathematics achievement. It is recommended that teachers may use the concept mapping technique when teaching mathematics.
