Webbing our thoughts with Mind Mapping Tool

We have a access to vast array of information.  We can simplify our lives by using Mind maps as webbing tools.  These tools offer a visual, simple way to organize our thoughts, notes and presentations.  If used effectively, they can be a great teaching tool.  Our students love to use technology so we can provide them the tools necessary to help them study, organize and prepare.
After reading an article about mind mapping as a teaching recourse, I created the following webs with  three different mind mapping tools.

popplet is a great tool to use in the classroom with students.  It offers an app to download so the students can easily access it with their device.  It is visually appealing and it will encourage student participation.  I created the following popplet with a free account available when you sign up for services.

Spicynodes is another webbing mind tool available.  A free account can be set up.  Spicynodes was not as visually appealing as the other tools.  It offers great editing tools, but I feel it may be too much for my students.  It is very busy and might confuse first time users.

wisemapping is a webbing tool that will appeal to the students.  It uses emoticons and they can be inserted into the mind mapp.  It is fairly easy to use and fairly visually appealing.  I would encourage my students to use wise mapping only after they have become comfortable with mind maps in general.
