The free web-based LucidChart is a perfect companion to the collaborative learning classroom at Penn State Lehigh Valley. First-exam results indicated that students enrolled in a peer review session using collaborative concept mapping to review fundamental biology processes scored better than students not enrolled in the review. During this session attendees will receive study results, view examples of student work and view video clips of students collaborating in the learning space. Attendees will work in groups to create a simple concept map with their choice of mapping program (options will be provided).
