conceptmaps into their education of students about sustainability. Concept maps have utility for bothformative and summative assessment. There appears to be some rational maximum to thenumber of concepts and/or amount of time that students are willing to spend on these exercises,but that could be beneficial to identify the elements that are foremost in students’ minds as theyconsider the complex subject of sustainability.References1.
