Dhanalaxmi Dash,

Abstract :

Energy resources has been put as an unit at secondary level(Class X) to help students learn about different energy resources, their efficient use and conservation. As an alternate to classical discussion method, concept map approach has been used in the present study to teach this unit by using various types of concept maps The effectiveness of this method has been evaluated and compared with discussion method through pre-test and post-test experimental design.The concept map approach was found to be more effective than discussion method in terms of understanding as reflected through achievement scores. Further, in this method learning was more durable. The implications of this method in understanding the concepts and class room transaction has been discussed.
