Resources for Online Outlining

June5

This is a post from David Kapuler that appears in “Tech & Learning” magazine called “Top 10 Sites for Creating Outlines” that I subscribe to.   It listed several resources for “online outlining”.  Some of the resources require subscription fees, though they usually offer a free trial period.  Some of the resources have areas for note taking, along with mind mapping, brainstorming as well as outlining.  I would like to check out two, specificially for incorporating in my 7th grade curriculum.
