During the course EDU 244 online, I found many interesting and helpful websites to make my teaching better. The name of the site is Bubbl.us Tutorial. Here is a link to the website. http://ugf.mrooms3.net/pluginfile.php/92609/mod_assign/intro/Bubbl.us%20Tutorial.pdf

I loved this website because it makes concept maps. Ever since I was a young girl I was the hands-on and visual type of learner. This website is great for those type of students. Also, you can make a map for any class. For example, I could make a concept map about the history of sports or fitness. The whole idea is to increase the students knowledge and to go more in-depth.

As a teacher, I would love to use this website for my physical fitness class. I would go in-depth of all the different sports there is and just have the goal of broadening the students knowledge of each history and where it originated from. Another way I could use it is as a test. I could just print out the same concept map, that as a class we filled out, and just delete certain areas that the students have to fill in from memory if they were paying attention.
