Thing #14... Go With The Flow! Bling!

Okay, so I'm back again. This time I went to two different websites and compared them. The first one was Gliffy and the second was Bubbl.us I really liked the options between these two sites. I had heard of flow charts, but I'd never heard of a mind map. I am actually very impressed with a mind map. I want to begin to use the mind maps for my own brainstorming tool and to help me organize my thoughts for a large paper. I think that a mind map would be a great way to teach the organization of a paper. Using the bubbles, you can have one for introduction and then have mini bubbles underneath them that contain individual sentences. This would be a great way to teach students without them realizing they are having to write papers. It could inspire children to write.
