This concept map represents the idea of specialization as it relates to the fur trade between the French and Native Americans. I would ask my students to create this type of map after studying and understanding the fur trade to show all of the jobs of each individual involved in the fur trade. From the jobs, the students could also connect the materials related to each job. It would help students solidify the vocabulary and connections between each person. I may choose to use another type of concept map software because I feel my students would benefit a lot from adding pictures to represent the material. The assignment would include students changing the colors of the bubbles to help show differences. I can see many more options for using this type of technology across all subject areas.
