Inspiration
We learned how to use Inspiration to create diagrams. I made a web diagram of a classification of organisms from the standard for fourth grade science. This was my first time ever using Inspiration, so it took a little while to get the hang of it. But after playing around for some time, I was able to figure everything out pretty easily. Really the only problem I ran into was locating specific items, but I was able to find them once I spent sometime trying things out. Also, it was difficult to fit it all into a space without scrolling, but after rearranging the information, I was able to make it fit. I think that next time I will able to do even better and make my web diagram faster and with more ease since I've experienced it before. I actually enjoyed making this. I feel like it would be a beneficial tool to use in my classroom. It would provide a way for students to view information in a new way. Maybe they would be able to comprehend the information more clearly in a web diagram than they would reading it in a textbook. If my students were older I think they would benefit from using Inspiration to create webs themselves.
