Quasi-experimental research demonstrates improved biology achievement with concept mapping for students, highlighting the teaching strategy's effectiveness.
Key Points
MAIN FINDING: Concept mapping significantly enhances biology achievement in students compared to conventional methods.
KEY EVIDENCE: Students taught with concept maps had higher mean scores on the Biology Achievement Test.
APPROACH: The study used a pretest-posttest non-equivalent quasi-experimental design with 2,444 students.
SIGNIFICANCE: Results suggest concept mapping should be integrated into biology teaching to enhance learning outcomes.
