Concept Mapping software
Concept mapping tools are becoming increasingly important due to the capability of concept maps to represent the knowledge claims and to reveal the conceptual hierarchy and interconnections among the key concepts the domain-of-interest. Some computer tools for concept- or mind mapping.
