Abstract: In this paper we presented our research and development efforts to support learners to cultivate their analytic and synthetic abilities during a concept mapping learning activity. In order to achieve this aim, we focus on a higher level than the level of nodes and propositions. Exploiting research findings from the area of brain science and mathematical concepts and tools from the field of network theory, we propose a new approach that gives encouraging results. We discuss these results with the presentation of a case study.
