Mind Mapping: Use your Inspiration

Mind mapping activities include spatially laying out a brainstorm, pre-writing of a story, using a graphic organizer, or concept mapping an idea. Two software programs, Inspiration and Kidspiration have many templates already created for you. Learn about Mindomo, a Web 2.0 tool, which can be used for collaboration. For MS Office 2007 users, learn how to easily insert graphic organizer in PowerPoint or Word using SmartArt. Participants are asked to bring curriculum materials that could be used for mind mapping activities.
