Concept Map

Please ASK if you are still confused about the Concept Map. It is "due" the 23rd, but get it to me sooner. Also, please check the Moodle for new uploads(Folder 20 for My ForPol Notes, notetaking - slides coming soon) and forums. Hectic day - come back tomorrow ready to contribute (Bullet-pointed essays).

Check out this site for mindmap ideas - even though a mind map is a little different (check wikipedia).  The key thing I want is ORIGINALITY - something new to you.  I cannot stand the "25 images centered around the Cuban Missile Crisis makng sure you have a large focus on USSR and another on USA with some minor focus on Cuba and Turkey, blah, blah, blah."

Remember how I told you that your college profs (and TAs) want NEW ideas.  They will NOT give you such structured requirements, other than question/topic and length.  You have to come up with the rest.  I gave you some info on Foreign Affairs - use, organize, and present it.

I found these concept maps by using the interweb - it's on computers now(click on image for source)):

Here's one on Music Culture (the site has MANY other cool links):

This one might be relevant:
Be careful.  This is a flow chart, NOT a concept map:

Lastly - Some of you may think there will NOT be a Court Cases/Amendments exam. Believe me when I say IT DOES EXIST AND WILL HAPPEN!!! Just not tomorrow or Friday.
