Gliffy / Mind Mapping
USES IN THE CLASSROOM:
This is a great visual for students. Lower elementary classrooms would have better use of mind mapping made by the teacher. Upper level elementary and secondary students would be able to design mind maps to prepare them for writing papers, demonstrating connections between concepts, and sort through information.
ISSUES TO CONSIDER:
There would need to be access to a computer with internet to be able to go to the Gliffy website. Gliffy has a 15 day trial and afterwards would need to be paid for. There are different levels of Gliffy to be purchased. Students would need to have a good understanding of how to use the software and also be able to spell. There are a lot of tools to use and students would need time to explore the software before being required to make a Gliffy for a grade. This would be more for middle school and high school use.
