Mind Mapping with Popplet Lite

Reflection - This app was very easy to use. It was easy to add popples, draw pictures, and add images. This would be a great app to map out a story during prewriting. It would also be a great way to summarize a unit in social studies. It could even be broken down so that different groups could work on different subtopics and then bring it all together in the end. I also think this app would be good for planning events in the classroom. The plan can be mapped out so that each task is assigned to different people in order for the event to run smoothly.

Find the Technology Flashcards

Reflection - This is an easy app for creating sets of flashcards. The set creation could be done by students or by the teacher. There are many different options for ways to study the flashcards, including some races against the clock. This would help students review terms, practice vocabulary, or review key facts about a topic. I don't prefer games of rote memorization, but I know the students will like studying this way, and they can challenge one another with the speed games.
