Why Semantic Mapping? It makes lectures more interesting. Semantic maps explicitly show connections between ideas. Graphic organizers give students an alternative way of demonstrating their understanding of the relationship between events, people, ideas, and themes. They give visual thinkers a way to brainstorm and organize their ideas. They give visual learners a hook for remembering information and vocabulary.

But You Said Zero Prep! It takes no longer than writing any other kind of notes. There are so many templates on Inspiration’s website and online you do not need to create anything new. For older students all you need to do is teach them to use it and send them on their way…oh wait you do not need to teach them how to use the software. Let us take a look.
