Hi,
Just wanted to know how to do concept mapping? I am give 3 topics and I have to choose one. The topics are as follows:
1. Healthy growth and development
2. Toddlers development in the 6 areas of development ( I am interested in doing)
3. Infant development in the 6 areas of development.


I would be really greatful if anyone could help.

Thanks
Riddhi

Hi Riddhi,

To start off with, do a quick google images search for 'concept maps', this will give you an idea of what you need to produce format-wise.
To make this particular map, I would put 'Toddler development' in the centre, make links to the six areas, then do some research on the areas and add in the information. You might put branches off each of the six areas - milestones, activities to develop the areas, or whatever you find out. If there are any links between the areas, you should join these together with a line as well to signify linking concepts. I hope this makes sense!! Maybe you could make a start and repost, and I can give you some feedback on how it's looking

Also, you may have better luck next time posting in the assignments support section of whichever qualification you are doing
