Thing #14

Mind map vs. Flowchart

Wow I am truly finding tools online that I could really see myself using. I tested all four suggested sites Gliffy, Bubbl.us, Flowchart.com, and Mindmeister. I liked Gliffy for a flow chart application and could see a flowchart being useful in any instructional application where new technology was being used. I could use Gliffy to walk students through almost any new process if they needed a refresher on the instructions based on the web. My favorite application was Mindmeister due to its extensive applications. Mindmeister is a mind map that could be used by students to organize facts for projects and papers. It could also be used for to-do list, meeting notes, or brainstorming. The biggest drawback to Mindmeister was its monthly charge.
