In recent years, to advances network technology, IT-enabled learning and support learning are important in on-line education. More learners obtain knowledge by the Web-Learning Instruction (WBI). Learners usually induce the problem of misconception and cognitive overload when they use Web-based learning system. At present, most of the studies in the on-line education either concentrate on the technological aspect (e.g. personalization technology development) or focus on adapting learner's interests or browsing behaviors, while, learner's ability and level of knowledge is neglected. Therefore, it is important to consider learner's ability while designing web-based learning system. This study developed an On-line Knowledge Diagnose System (OKDS) to diagnose learner's misconception and provide personalized remedial guidance that based on a graphic organizer technology -concept map. The results indicate that the OKDS can effectiveness enhance learners learner's learning performance and learner also has positive perception of OKDS.

Recent advances in network technology are an important form of IT-enabled learning and learning support for on line education.??More and more learners obtain knowledge via the Web-learning Instruction (WBI). At present, most of the studies in the on line education are focus on the technological aspect (e.g. Personalizational technology development), while, how to design and arrange the content of learning material is neglected. Therefore, students usually induce the problem of disorientation and cognitive overload when they use Web-based learning system. It is beneficial to provide and design proper style to present learning material to help students learn with the Web-based learning system (WBLS). This study adopts a graphic organizer technology – concept maps to design the learning materials into Web-based instruction (WBI). This study also conducts a satisfaction survey to understand students' perception and attitude toward this type of content representation style. Results indicate that students have positive perception and attitude of the concept mapping content representation style.
