For this, you need to lay out and analyse your ODFL ecosystem using a mind map. A mind map is a drawing used to show words, ideas, tasks or other things. Everything is written around a word or idea in the middle. This word or idea is the main topic and linking and branching out from this main topic are ideas relating to it.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Task:<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>The task for this learning challenge is to prepare and upload a mind map, which should clearly show the following:\n<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> Tools that are available \/ accessible to you\n<\/li>\n<li> Tools that are accessible to your students\n<\/li>\n<li> What makes each tool a good option &#8211; how can you use each to present your content \/ communicate with your students?\n<\/li>\n<li> The drawbacks associated with using each tool\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>The Steps (7) for Designing Your Mind Map:<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>There are many mind mapping softwares available online. You may use any software that you find convenient. However, one free software we suggest is \u201cMindMup\u201d. The instructions below show how you can use the \u201cMindMup\u201d software to design your mind map.\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Step 1: <\/b>Click on this link to access the mind mapping software: <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mindmup.com\/\"><b>https:\/\/www.mindmup.com\/<\/b><\/a>\n<\/p>\n<p><b>Step 2: <\/b>On the home page, click on <b>\u201cCreate a Free Map\u201d.<\/b>\n<\/p>\n<p>A mind map deigning pane will open.
