2. Why Free Tech-Tools for
Writers?
Why Self-Access Tutorials?
Introduction
Because…
• …writing with tech-tools is an
everyday fact for both teachers and
students
• …writing with technologies impacts
the writing process substantially
• …Why free? Are you serious?
Because we’re teachers not sports
stars!
Because…
• …students need to learn how to
apply specific technologies to
content areas
• …teachers need to instruct
students on how to use appropriate
technologies
• …teachers’ teaching time is
getting more and more limited
• …teachers need to learn new
technologies themselves

7. This free, open-source mind-mapping application is written in Java with
the Swing GUI toolkit and licensed under the GNU General Public
License, which means using FreeMind is free and any code derived from
FreeMind code must also be licensed under GPL. It is cross-platform
with the same user interface for Microsoft Windows, Linux and MacOS
X. While this may produce some form variation for Mac users, function is
maintained. Plugins allow viewing and creating FreeMind files on
Confluence, Drupal, JSPWiki, MediaWiki, MoinMoin, Moodle, TikiWiki,
Trac, TWiki, and WikkaWiki.
FreeMind has a non-linear approach to mind-mapping, which makes it
an appropriate brainstorming assistant. The user can determine
hierarchies and add new ideas around a central concept.
