Body Fluids Concept Map

Body Fluids Concept Map

Overview: You probably noticed that our current unit (Body Fluids) does not contain a “Lecture Notes” tab with a concept map. That is because you will be creating your own concept map related to body fluids for Lab 9!

Lab Expectations

For this assignment, you will develop a comprehensive, computer-generated concept map of body fluid chemistry. This map should resemble the maps that I include in the “lecture notes” section of each of our units, and should feature what you believe are the most important details from our video links in this unit!

Please make sure your map is saved as a .jpg file! Questions? Just ask!

Directions: Everyone should visit the first link to gain a general understanding of what concept mapping is, how to create a concept map, and the reasons for creating and using concept maps. Then, everyone will need to use concept mapping software to use for this assignment, or use an online app. Two options are provided below (you only need to use one form of concept mapping software, not both!).

1. This is the software that I use to create our “lecture notes” maps. When you visit the following site, click on Downloaded and follow the instructions that appear. Pros and Cons: Some people say that this software is not as easy to use or as fancy as Inspiration concept mapping software. However, it is absolutely free – you may download it for free, with no time limit on its use!

2. Free Online App! Some of my former students have commented that SmartDraw, below, is easy to use.
