Thing 14

Everyone learns differently.  Some people need to see a picture, while other require a chart or table.  Flow charts and mind maps are both useful in the classroom to help meet the needs of students and assist the teacher deliver information.  A mind map is an excellent way to outline infomation visually while a flow chart is better for explaining more complex pieces of information.  The following is a mind map I created about slavery in the US for a class I am teaching next semester

This would be an excellent way to help me organize my thoughts prior to lecture.


This is a flow chart I created to deal with World War II.



I chose to use flowchart.com because it was extremely easy to use and contains templates for many different chart types.  I could use a flow chart in the classroom to not only present information but to explain grading.
