Concept Mapping

This is the concept map that I have created using the Text2 Mind Map. As I played around with both the Text2 Mind Map and Bubbl.us I found myself favouring the Text2 as it could change into different colours and seemed easier to navigate compared to Bubbl.us.

I believe that utilising this tool in the classroom will benefit learners greatly especially if they have trouble absorbing large amounts of information. I am one of those students. I tend to freak out if there is too much information being fed to me and often forget most of it. It is also a good tool for the learning manager. It would be an engaging learning tool for students of all ages and could be manipulated to however you wanted it. E.g. for science, when learning about frogs students could put all the information the have learnt about frogs into the mind map, their habitat, their diet, life cycle, defence mechanism etc.

When I first started using this tool I became overwhelmed by how complicated it seemed however as I became familiar with the way Text2 Mind Maps worked I realised what a easy and helpful tool it can be.
