As a part of this extensive project, the GetSmart system was created to apply knowledge management techniques in a learning environment. The design of the system is based on an analysis of learning theory and theinformation search process. Its key notion is the integration of search tools and curriculum support with concept mapping. More than 100 students at the University of Arizona and Virginia Tech used the system in the fall of 2002. A database of more than one thousand student-prepared concept maps has been collected with more than forty thousand relationships expressed in semantic, graphical, node-link representations. Preliminary analysis of the collected data is revealing interesting knowledge representation patterns. 10aAccounting10aBIS1 aMarshall, Byron1 aZhang, Yiwen1 aChen, Hsinchun1 aLally, Ann1 aShen, Rao1 aFox, Edward1 aCassel, Lillian uhttp://people.oregonstate.edu/~marshaby/Papers/Marshall_JCDL2003_GetSmart.pdf
