Inspiration is a concept mapping and graphing tool that helps students to organize thoughts and synthesize information by creating their own visual map of the information. I think Inspiration is a great way to see how students think, and what connections they make to the reading. I actually had a really hard time with understanding the text of the Universal Design article, and how each section connected to the other conceptually, making it harder for me to complete an Inspiration map about it. On the other hand, having to put the map into a visual format that other people can understand forced me to read even more carefully, which helped to improve my understanding.
