I explored all the different mind maps and flowcharts and I believe that the difference between the two is that the flowchart is like different steps in doing something while a mind map is more like a brainstorm chart. I used Bubbl.us to make a chart of the things I need to have a cookout for my grandson's baseball team and it was so easy to use. Going from one bubble to the next was very easy and moving them around to place them where I wanted was easy, too. The site was easy to use and navigate.
I really liked these tools. I think that these charts would be most useful for actual activites in a classroom such as using the flow charts to help students brainstorm ideas for writing a paper and the maps could be use to create different views. For the most part, the charts followed the same basic concepts, but both could be interchanged in a classroom.
