Abstract :
This paper presents a study carried out at Hirubide Secondary School in the Basque Country with the aim of evaluating whether the use of the CM-ED Concept Map EDitor increases student motivation and engagement in the learning process. During the last decades, motivating students has increasingly become a problem for educators even more in multicultural educational settings.
