As I said, this is a diagram I created, but the software is simple enough to be used for teachers to create diagrams with young students, or for more computer efficient students to create diagrams on their own. It may take some practice and explanation the first time, but after that it should be very easy to use. Inspiration software can be used for any subject to create graphic organizers, idea maps, concept maps, and other digital diagrams. If possible, I would use Inspiration in my classroom to create different diagrams for my students and with my students. These diagrams can help explain different subject matters in a way that is easier for everyone to understand. They can assist and encourage organized thinking while being interesting and aesthetically pleasing. I would use it to project during a lesson and possibly print the diagram to post in the classroom also.
There were a few difficulties that I encountered while working with Inspiration, but nothing major. It was difficult for me to get the spacing of all of the objects in the diagram in a way that is easy to follow and understand. Also, the sizing and different colors of the diagram were a challenge, because I wanted to make sure that everything was appropriate for the topic and age level. All of these challenges just take a little time and playing around with the program to get everything worked out. Next time, I will make sure to plan everything out, especially the organization of the bubbles, more carefully. Overall, everything went smoothly though. It is easy to insert graphics from the program, or copy and paste them from somewhere else. Also, linking text to outside websites is easily done by clicking the link button.This program is a lot of fun to use to create tools students can use more than once.
