I will attach an example of the assignment. You may turn in a separate paper to accompany the mind map. Most folks who use free software find it difficult to weave the results from the software into a pdf or pptx. Some folks integrate everything into a pdf. Some folks turn in only the mind map without any rationale because their semester goal has been met already via other avenues. Whatever type of submission is posted will be evaluated by the rubric.
If you choose to use some free software, check out this example from a grad student in a different class…
