Inspiration software is a wonderful tool teachers and students can use in many ways, such as creating webs and other graphic organizers. This software program allows you to organize information in any content area, including reading. For example, a student can create a character web or story map after reading a book as an assessment piece rather than writing a dull book report. Inspiration and its companion programs allow students to develop 21st Century Literacy Skills by analyzing and interpreting information, as well as communicating clearly. The Inspiration website provides many more research-based reasons, as well as information for those interested in trying out this wonderful program.
