Hi Everyone!
I’m Susan Trinkle, an instructor in the Humanities at Metropolitan Community College in Omaha, NE. I like to give my students assignments to do before class that shows me they’ve done the required reading. This would also work well for an online class where you want to make sure students read the material. This is an assignment that they can’t easily AI. It’s interactive, kinesthetic, and engaging and I’ve had great feedback from students about how they prefer this to a multiple choice quiz.
While this isn’t a mind map exactly, this activity is a way for students to have more structured practice at making a mind map by moving the concepts provided into the right place on the timeline. I do this activity before giving them a more free-form mind-map to create in a future lesson.
I also learned that it’s really important to give excessive directions when they first use Lucid. In this video, you can see me walk through the ways I’ve explained the assignment.
Here is the template for you to copy and modify as you need: https://lucid.app/lucidchart/6cfbb682-4c0b-4785-b49e-8a45edf5bd34/editnew?page=0_0&invitationId=inv_73ce14d2-bf91-4b96-9994-02e3b0c353ff
Have fun!
