Öllinger, Michael; Hammon, Stephanie; von Grundherr, Michael; Funke, Joachim – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2015
Causal mapping is often recognized as a technique to support strategic decisions and actions in complex problem situations. Such drawing of causal structures is supposed to particularly foster the understanding of the interaction of the various system elements and to further encourage holistic thinking. It builds on the idea that humans make use…

Cai, Huiying; Lin, Lin; Gu, Xiaoqing – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2016
This study provides an in-depth look into the implementation process of visualization-based tools for structuring collaborative problem solving (CPS) in the classroom. A visualization-based learning platform--the semantic diagram for structuring CPS in a real classroom was designed and implemented. Metafora, the preliminary vehicle of the semantic…
