Abstract
This article aimed to implement concept-mapping as a tool to improve the learning quality that enhances the higher order cognitive skills among medical students. A concept map typically represents ideas and information as boxes or circles, which it connects with labeled arrows in a downward-branching hierarchical structure. The relationship between concepts can be articulated in linking phrases such as causes, requires, or contributes to.
