A review of applications for the combined use of Inspiration Software and Voicethread.com by Frank Nussbaum

The Inspirations Inc. family of “concept mapping” software products are intended for and can benefit students within a broad range of abilities and age levels. This Software is of specific interest to me as a tool for helping high functioning and gifted students with ADHD and or Learning disabilities successfully organize complex ideas and thoughts into a final tangible product. Inspirations software not only makes graphic organizers accessible, it actually transforms them easily into simple outlines in a text format. The process of using any one of these programs (Inspiration, Inspiredata, and Kispiration) typically starts with a brainstorming process that automatically takes ideas as they are typed as words and phrases and develops them into a graphic organizer. As the video demonstrates below, every time the student types something and hits enter, a new balloon or concept is created. With one easy click, the resulting visual map (graphic organizer) can be transformed into a written outline form that is actually usable. With the "Rapidfire" feature, it becomes possible for fast thinking students to get their thoughts mapped out quickly before they are lost.
