These concepts were arranged by the students by choosing one of the concept maps of spider web, fishbone, classification, chain of events. Research data consists of concept map evaluation forms. Findings were created by coding the data obtained from the answers of the forms with content analysis. According to the research findings; It was revealed that pre-service teachers provided gains about their fields, concept map technique and themselves. As a result, the concept map technique has been an experience that contributes to the learning of the concepts related to visual arts by pre-service teachers.
