This study examined some of the affective outcomes for teacher educators and student teachers resulting from the use of semantic webbing/mapping as a strategy for facilitating reflective and critical thinking skills in a kindergarten teacher education program in Hong Kong. Interviews of a random sample of participants and an analysis of their mind-maps revealed a change in perspectives and attitudes toward subject matter content and teaching curriculum. (Author/KB)
