Because of that link I got to thinking more about resources I need to find for my teachers which lead me to thinking about how to organize my thoughts, which lead me to thinking about concept mapping which lead me to find more online tools that I can share. I found one that might work for me very well (in addition to SpiderScribe). I don't know if you are familiar with it, it is http://www.wisemapping.com. There is also one more, http://www.exploratree.org.uk/ that is pretty cool for students. <br /><br />MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04448140339937741394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8760255908668146240.post-50649898553728701752014-01-26T07:21:14.884-07:002014-01-26T07:21:14.884-07:00I also did it again yesterday and saved the link. ...I also did it again yesterday and saved the link.

I was able to copy it for you though.<br />Mary<br /><br />I am including a few ideas that you can include in your Problem-based toolbox.<br />This is an excellent questioning tool kit. I had to work at helping the students to come up with good essential questions. Jamie McKenzie had some great examples.<br />http://questioning.org/Q7/toolkit.html<br />A Questioning Toolkit <br />Each district should create a Questioning Toolkit which contains several dozen kinds of questions and questioning tools. This Questioning Toolkit should be printed in large type on posters which reside on classroom walls close by networked, information-rich computers.<br />Portions of the Questioning Toolkit should be introduced as early as Kindergarten so that students can bring powerful questioning technologies and techniques with them as they arrive in high school.<br />Essential Questions<br />Subsidiary Questions<br />Hypothetical Questions<br />Telling Questions<br />Planning Questions<br /><br />Organizing Questions<br />Probing Questions<br />Sorting & Sifting Questions<br />Clarification Questions<br />Strategic Questions<br /><br />Elaborating Questions<br />Unanswerable Questions<br />Inventive Questions<br />Provocative Questions<br />Irrelevant Questions<br /><br />Divergent Questions<br />Irreverent Questions<br /><br /><br />Realityworks develops interactive, educational simulations that changes lives. Our products and curricula are used in career & technical education, family & consumer sciences, health occupations, business education, welding instruction, social services, public health, the military and more. Our simulation technology has been used around the world for 18 years, improving and enhancing social, emotional, and physical health.<br />http://www.realityworks.com/<br />Smog City is an interactive air pollution simulator that shows how your choices, environmental factors, and land use contribute to air pollution. In Smog City you're in control so your visit can be a healthy or unhealthy experience depending on the decisions you make. You'll see how ground-level ozone, the biggest part of summertime smog, increases or decreases when you spend a day in Smog City. And since ozone can irritate respiratory systems, cause breathing difficulty, coughing, and chest pain, knowing how and why ozone forms and what you can do about it is important to the residents of Smog City and everyone else on the planet. <br /><br />http://www.smogcity.com/<br /><br />Explore large structures and what it takes to build them with BUILDING BIG™, a five-part PBS television series and Web site from WGBH Boston.
