Can anyone clarify please?
Do the students mind map the problem-solving methodology as in the text book or the PSM and all the bits that they do - so more specific to their own processes?
The assessment guide mentions all the phases? i'm not really sure.
Thank-you, Litsa

I just read this good magazine article that describes in detail how to use Freemind to create a mindmap. I like the colourful recipe context that the Author has baked into the tutorial.
Freemind in your kitchen (2007) by Gianluca Pignalberi
http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/making_mind_maps_with_freemind?page=all,1,2,3
I have uploaded a printable PDF version that you are welcome to download and use in the classroom. I made this using Firefox / Aardvark addon / PDF Creator.
http://www.vitta.org.au/resources/detail.php?doc_id=3228
Like most FLOSS, not only are your student users free to download, use, share or poke a stick at Freemind ... as a tutorial bonus they can get to try out the recipe for yourself. :-P
