Module 6

Well I did it - not only have I created an online mind map, I have exported it into my blog -
 I then tried to return to my bubbl.us site & it was there no more! - Did I CUT not export? Where did my web 2 mindmap go?? All that hard work has vanished!!
Beware - there are 2 'bubbl.us' sites - the original & a 'bubbl.us/beta' site - they are not linked & DO NOT transfer info between sites.
Clicking on the link in module 6 to create the account takes you to the beta site - but when you use the template provided by CEO in the 'preparing for the course' section - that takes you to the origional 'Bubbl.us' site - Has anyone else been caught?? 
Blogs - This mindmapping tool is a lot of fun -   there are many students  areas within each KLA to use such a tool, from brainstorming, assessment to presentation of work to name a few. Ideal to use with Special Ed / lifeskills students who find it very difficult to or are unable to record their ideas by writing, but will be able to record their ideas as single words or phrases in the mulit coloured bubbles.
Then its on to the Glogster site to create my own 'glog' or on line poster or web page.
The glogs are a tool students especially those who are creative will love, they may spend too much time playing with the images, text and videos available. Gologs are a perfect tool to incorporate into programs across all KLA's, they will blend perfectly into assignments and homework tasks.
