Applications of Popplet in Education
I think you have already realized the importance of this web2.0 tool in education . There are several ways we can use it with our students . We can for example use it as presentation tool with each popple representing a silde . you can change the order of the popples just like what you would do with a slideshow . We can also use it for mind mapping activity inside the class ; you create a popple and type your content and then select one of the circles on the side to create a link to a new popple .That’s it about Popplet : The educative presentation ,mind mapping,and bulletin board platform.
