GOMES, Andréia Patrícia; DIAS-COELHO, Udson Chandler; CAVALHEIRO, Priscila de Oliveira  and  SIQUEIRA-BATISTA, Rodrigo. The role of concept maps in the medical education. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2011, vol.35, n.02, pp.275-282. ISSN 1981-5271.

As part of the medical education, due to the compelling changes required to produce a professional who learns how to learn, the meaningful learning construct proposed by David Ausubel provides a true contextualization of the knowledge needed for medical practice, allowing in this way a more effective learning and allowing it to be used in an interdisciplinary and complex context. Accordingly, this manuscript aims to present the role of concept maps in medical education.

Keywords : Learning; Concept Maps; Medical Education.
