The purpose of the concept maps is to help you visually summarize, organize, and make connections between the basic concepts and principles you learned throughout the course. Each concept map will be based on the topics/chapters covered up until the week the concept map is due. Every subsequent concept map will build upon the previous concept map; in other words, your concept map will grow as it builds upon the previous concept map. Therefore, you may not delete a previous concept map, as you will need to add to it as you progress through the concept maps.
