Lets Create a Concept Map using *drumroll* INSPIRATION8



*So, I am really starting to like this Blogging thing. I can get down with this. If only it wasn’t for a grade.  

CREATE A CONCEPT MAP:

So, I had to create a Concept Map using Inspiration. (Insert definition of a concept map here).
 When creating a concept map you have to present a broad subject and break it down into subtopics. Then you have to make it beautiful to the eye and useful to other people. Why? Because other people like using other peoples stuff. It’s just easier. Plus, a lot of people are not that creative.

 USE INSPIRATION:

Step 1: Decide on a topic- I wavered between: The planets, The body systems, life cycle of a plant but I finally decided on The 5 senses.
Step 2: Decide on your subtopics
Step 3: Create a rough sketch before you start your final sketch in Inspiration8 (DownloadInspiration8 if you don't have it. It is a free 30 day trial…luckily I only needed like 2 days to create my Concept Map)
Step 4: Create Concept Map
So here is my final Concept Map

Isn't it Beautimous?
