Would Rationale be of assistance? http://www.austhink.com/ (No, I don't sell
it)

Subject: [Year 12 IT Apps] Visual thinking

attached are examples of all the thinking I have done about visual
thinking (two of them were produced by students with my input)  - I have
gone through each of these with the students

I have suggested that they produce a separate thinking diagram for each
criterion so that they don't end up with a ginormous diagram that
confuses them even further

I have strongly suggested that they use Inspiration

Tips: different shapes to represent different layers of thinking -
example,rectangles for decisions, cloud for action or thinking, circle
for next step - it doesn't really matter
use different colours to highlight the different levels of thinking

I have indicated that ultimately I  need to be able to understand what
processes they went through and how the processes and thoughts about
these are connected

Due to school events - no IT lessons next week so SAC starts week after
