Collaborative concept mapping were used as teaching strategies. Prior to the course, a two-tier diagnostic survey was used to assess the students’ understanding of the air pollutant of fine particulate matter and identify any potential changes in conceptual understanding. After the course, further investigations were carried out to assess student learning experiences on the use of collaborative learning and concept mapping as a learning tool. This study adopted a pre-test, post-test, and nonequivalent group quasi experimental design. The subjects were two classes of grade 4 students from a public elementary school in Miaoli County. One class was selected as the experimental group (with 24 students) and was taught the course of Air Pollution - Fine Particular Matter using collaborative concept mapping while the other class (with 25 students) was the control group and was taught the same course using general teaching methods. The course included 9 sessions spreading across a period of 3 weeks. Data analysis methods include: descriptive statistics, dependent samples and independent samples t-test, and one-way ANCOVA. The main results of this study are as follows: 1.The concept mapping for Air Pollution - Fine Particular Matter included 5 constructs: Air characteristics, source and cause, categories, impact, and prevention and control. 2.Grade 4 students lacked adequate understanding of the concept of Air Pollution - Fine Particular Matter, and generated 16 alternative concepts. 3.The general teaching can improve students understanding of the Air Pollution - Fine Particular Matter but collaborative learning and concept mapping was greater than general teaching. 4.After undergoing the course that integrated collaborative concept mapping, the number of alternative concepts held by the students was reduced from 17 to 10. 5.Students were capable of maintaining a positive learning attitude during collaborative learning as well as concept mapping.
