Designing concept maps!

🤩
Objective: To construct a concept map that
answers the question, “Drugs are any
substances when taken can affect how the
body and brain works. What are the
consequences of drug abuse?”
 Steps to success: Students are able to
construct a concept map that clearly
visualizes the concepts, arrows and linking
words
 READING ASSIGNMENT
Activity 1: 1. Read page 5 – 17 of your
(Individual)
textbook.
10 minutes
2. Make sure you note down
any important keywords
But what are concept maps?
Visual representation of information
The key step is to focus on the ways concepts
are linked to each other
So, how can we do concept maps?
 Step 1: Identifying keywords

Keywords are the main idea or concept or

topic that define what your content is about
Step 2: What’s the aim of the concept map?

Refer to the question or the aim to help you

design your concept map

Any questions?
 Your task is to design a
concept map that answers
Activity 2:
this question: “What are the
(Individual) consequences of drug
20 – 30 minutes abuse?”. I have started for
you. You can add the rest
with at least 10 keywords.
 Pair up.
Compare your concept maps.
Activity 3: - Is the same?
- How different is it?
Pair up
- Are the keywords linking?
- Did your friend forget
anything?
