Abstract EN
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of using digital-based concept mapping as strategy on students’ achievements and attitudes.
Data was collected from 58 students enrolled in the course of “Introduction to Educational Technology” in Instructional and Teaching Technologies Department at Sultan Qaboos University.
Two sections out of four sections were selected randomly as the sample of the study.
One of the sections was randomly chosen as experimental group (n = 27) and the other was control group (n = 31).
Both pre- and postachievement tests were used.
The results of the study revealed that students who were taught with digital-based concept mapping strategy performed better than those who were taught with the conventional method.
There was a significant difference between male and female students in the post test scores of the experimental group in favor of females.
In addition, no interaction effect for the independent variables was found.
The study also showed that students in the experimental group had positive attitude towards using digital-based concept mapping in learning educational technology.
