Abstract

The paper presents development of the concept map and the concept map-based web portal for education in immunological computation and computational immunology. The concept map should help with learning of students who do not study medicine, pharmacy or similar study programs and support active learning on the basis of collaborative development of the concept map by students with the assistance of a teacher.
