Abstract: We have been developing the visualization system of mathematical knowledge structure based on the hyperlink structure of mathematical e-learning website and expanding the knowledge structure to the field of STEM. We applied this technology to mathematical exercises which are incorporated into our mathematical e-learning website and developed a new visualization system which shows knowledge necessary for solving mathematical questions by using network graphs. This system support learners who don’t have enough knowledge to solve questions by indicating what knowledge is necessary. The learner can study basic knowledge by just clicking hyperlinks on the knowledge structure map. We also developed print materials combined with the new system via QR code. This visualization system is a good tool for self-adaptive learning.
