Concept mapping makes use of position and space to convey relationships, connections, and hierarchy. What makes this app so powerful is the blending of digital features with the portability of a pencil and a notebook.
Our favorite feature is the ability to change a cell shape using the camera function on the iPad. Now a concrete representation of a real-world concept can be included in a map. Examples include pictures from a story, real life items that are being categorized, or part to whole relationships for complex items.
We rate Inspiration Maps a must-have for all classrooms. Critical thinking by students begins with teachers modeling the thinking.
