Promoting successful learning is key in developing students from novice to professionals in their respective fields of study. In the field of science, students have long practiced the art of memorization without complete understanding. To combat this common problem, Joseph Novak and D. Bob Gowin, constructed two metacognitive tools. These metacognitive tools, concept mapping and Vee heuristic, were developed with the hopes of providing students with a way to connect concepts, principles, and theories similar to their professors.  The purpose of this study was to use these two tools as a way to promote successful learning among college-level science students. Both of these metacognitive tools were given to students enrolled in a microbiology lecture-laboratory course (BIOL 2110/2111 and BIOL 3220/3221). Concept mapping and the Vee heuristic were given to students in the guise of a study guide, in hopes to promote constant use and easy access. As a way to measure students' improvement in learning, two assessments general knowledge of microbiology (GKM) and public knowledge of microbiology (PKM) were constructed and given to students periodically throughout the course of the study.  After the study's completion it was found that those students using the study guide regularly appeared to have a better understanding of the basic concepts required to successfully learn microbiology. Additionally students enrolled in BIOL 3220/3221 who used the study guide with help from a knowledgeable instructor significantly scored higher on the GKM assessment than the control group of students. Also discovered during the course of this study was nursing students attitudes towards scientific concepts. This particular find has important implications regarding the outcomes of this study. Â

This study investigated the use of concept mapping as a pedagogical strategy to promote change in the learning styles of pre-nursing students. Students' individual learning styles revealed two subsets of students; those who demonstrated a learning style that favors abstract conceptualization and those who demonstrated a learning style that favors concrete experience. Students in the experimental groups performed concept mapping activities designed to facilitate an integrative understanding of interactions between various organ systems of the body while the control group received a traditional didactic instruction without performing concept mapping activities. Both qualitative and quantitative data were collected in order to measure differences in student achievement. Analysis of the quantitative data revealed no significant change in the learning styles of students in either the control or experimental groups. Learning style groups were analyzed qualitatively for recurring or emergent themes that students identified as facilitating their learning. An analysis of qualitative data revealed that most students in the pre-nursing program were able to identify concepts within the class based upon visual cues, and a majority of these students exhibited the learning style of abstract conceptualization. As the laboratory experience for the course involves an examination of the anatomical structures of the human body, a visual identification of these structures seemed to be the most logical method to measure students' ability to identify anatomical structures. Â
