الملخص EN

The paper describes how to employ the concept mapping technology in engineering education in the field of Electronics.

The overall knowledge domain ontology in the field is shown.

It is underlined that the concept maps serve as a suitable tool to support instructors in promoting students’ comprehension of the studying material and in improving their understanding of new concepts.

Introduction of an original educational thesaurus is proposed.

Such a thesaurus helps learners to see what they have acquired from the lessons.

It supports them in making connections between new and prior concepts and reinforces knowledge integration by such a promotion.

The developed concept maps are regarded as a valuable instrument of many assessment procedures.

They represent learners’ knowledge providing informative and reflective feedbacks tailored to learners’ personal styles and requests.
