Dream School Hierarchy (Bubbl.us)

a) Description of the assignment.
For this assignment, we experimented with Bubbl.us (https://bubbl.us/), which is an online graphic organizer (mind-mapping) that allows users to organize their thoughts or information online. Our task, as partners, was to create a hierarchy  flow chart of our ideal dream school, which is what you see above. 

b) Evaluation of the Software you used.
This website makes mind-mapping real simple and easy to use. It is a great tool to use for a graphic organizer that can be accessed online and the features offered make using the site enjoyable.

c) How you plan to use this site into your future classroom.
This website would be used to teach my students in a multiple of ways. For example, in Social Studies, this website will be used when we are learning about the government, they could demonstrate the process of our government, explaining how the government functions by identifying who is at the top and how roles are divided to serve the peoples needs. This website could also be integrated with Language Arts as it is a form of a graphic organizer. 

d) How will this application enhance your assignments?
By catering to students skilled logically, linguistically, and technologically and for those who have a hard time organizing their thoughts, this website makes it easier for them to do so.
