E- Learning


Well this week's class topic was education learning and the social networking tool to go along with this topic was mind meister which is an organizing program. How the tool relates to this topic of E- learning is organization because in the education world if you are not a good person at organizing than you would be failing school. This tool mind Meister will help you keep your thoughts for any subject that you are working on in an organized way so you won't get messed up all the time on the things that you're working on for school or personal life as well.
The function of this tool is to make sure you have things mapped out correctly for things that you're working on for school or a daily planner for personal life things that you are involved in. I know people out there are unorganized and misplace things and not knowing what to do or where to be well this tool will fix that to make sure you get done things correctly and on time. This tool can function as many different organize styles like writing a paper you can organize your thoughts for that paper by creating a web that includes your main point, three sub Main points and finally the conclusion.
What was interesting about the tool mind Meister was there were so many different ways that you can create and organize to put in your daily planner or to work on a paper. But the coolest thing was you can invite people to look at the web that you created on Mind Meister and they can make changes to it. But when you log back in to the site you can see what changes your friend has made and will show up in a different color so you can notice it. It's like a peer edit but its happening online which is pretty cool I think.
There was not a challenging thing with the tool Mind Meister because it was very easy to navigate around the site. The only challenging thing that was tough about the tool is there were not a lot of templates that you can choose from to organize your thoughts and schedule. If you wanted to get the full package you would have to pay some money per month to get the full experience with mind Meister. But with the templates I got to use I thought it was still pretty cool how the site works.
To improve this tool I think what needs to happen is you need to get this program some marketing and advertisement because this is the first time I have ever heard of this tool called mind Meister. There are people out there that suck at writing and can't organize their thoughts very well and this tool will help them get better at organizing their thoughts and becoming a better writer as well. The other thing that helps us tool communicate well is that you connect with Face book which is social networking tools well so that will help the situation a little bit.
My experience with this tool mind Meister was pretty fun. I like how I created my class schedule for this semester and created it into a web. Also I did was create my mom a schedule for what she has to do for having our house have Thanksgiving because once in a while when we have Thanksgiving she forgets something and this organizer which I created for her will help her not have that problem this year at least. I enjoyed navigating around Mind Meister and will be using this tool in the future to help organize things.
