This is mind map created on Bubbl.us. The mind map gives a simple overview of the topics covered in the first week of this course managing e-learning. I found this tool easy to use and very useful. I feel confident in using this tool both in and outside the classroom. For me this tool is very beneficial to my learning as I am a visual spacial learner so using something like a concept/mind map I am able to visually see my current learning and understanding.
Concept maps are an effective tool in which students can use to store and organise information in useful ways. Marzano et, al. (2006) supports the use of using concept maps to help students not only construct meaning but also helps them to store, or remember, the information they are learning. Students can use this program in many ways in classroom learning. Students may create a concept map in pairs about what they learnt in a lesson or can create a concept map to show what they already know about a topic. This program can also be used in whole class learning where the class can create a concept map using a smart board about a topic. The learning manager can also use these mind maps as a way to assess students learning.
By using a program like bubbl.us students and teachers are able to easily create a mind map for any given purpose and save and retrieve that map for later use. Students are also able to view other students and feedback and discussion is able to be given or generated around the mind map.
I believe this program to be extremely valuable to all students learning and through using such a tool in the classroom students are able to effectively store knowledge from their short to long term memory.
