We also played with Inspiration, a computer software that helps with brainstorming. I didn't care for this one too much because I was having a lot of problems with it being slow. When I got past that, I still had a hard time connecting with it. It is a paid software and it frankly, looked a bit tacky. I personally can't take sloppy notes (I'm a bit OCD that way), and chaotic brainstorming isn't my thing either. I'm embarrassed to post my creation from Inspiration, so if you will excuse my passivity. I did check out the free online version of this same sort of thing Bubbl.us and it was actually a lot better than its paid evil twin, Inspiration. Although, like I said, I can't brainstorm or think like this so I didn't really make anything that is worthy of posting to the world wide web. Bubbl did seem to have better graphics, and in my opinion, it was easier to navigate. This concept of visual learning seems really affective and as a visual/kinesthetic learner myself, I have to say, an excellent educational tool.
