Abstract

Reading is an important learning skill. But in Taiwan, the traditional education lead student to study passively when reading. Recently, the organization of text structure is thought to be an effective way on reading. On organizing, learners can comprehend and memorize their ideas by building their own text structure. Concept mapping is an organizing method which is widely used in education. This study designed an E-Book system with concept mapping function. We defined three concept mapping activities with different concept maps supported, Full Map, Partial Map and No Map. This study is to investigate the user behavior of reading through different supported map and see which is better helped on reading.
