Thing #14

Flow charts and mind maps.  This was an interesting exercise.  I did not even know that these programs existed! I did not like the fact that some you had to pay for, however the free ones were very interesting.  I think that I liked Gliffy the best.  I had fun making the flow charts, venn diagrams, and floor plans.  I found it easy to navigate.  I could have used it a month ago when I had to make a Venn Diagram for class!!  I tried Bubbl.us for the mind mapping.  I liked it, but not as much as Gliffy.  I thought this would be a good tool for people who like to brainstorm.  Start with one topic and then build off it.  I think having students to do this could be useful and fun in the class.  I think that having them create their own diagrams could be fun too!  I definately will keep these sites in mind for when I begin to teach.
