My blog post details out what I did with my cluster.
I broke down the main points into small chunks that highlighted the main issues and points. Within the major groups of the issue, I highlighted the bigger speakers and branched off into how they discuss the issue and their values. I only pointed out the major speakers that I encountered, since there are a lot of speakers on each side.
My cluster
EDIT:
After looking at Casey Frantz's post and cluster, I felt as though my cluster was a bit too disorganized. His cluster was broken down into major chunks with basic ideas easily legible and understandable, while mine ended up looking a little all over the place. The arguments and ideas, while given in greater detail than Casey's, look confused and criss-crossed.
Alex Segovia's post and cluster made me feel the same way. Seeing his neatly organized into pros and cons was very helpful and informative, and having a separate cluster chain for major speakers and where the debate occurred probably made his look less confusing. Even the pros and cons were split up into three easy to follow sections, and I liked how informative his cluster was.
I will probably go back and clean up how my cluster looks a bit, just based on a comparison to these other clusters.

You and I used the same tool to create these clusters, which was really interesting to me. I liked seeing how your cluster and mine differed in organization, but that they communicated the essentials nonetheless. Before looking at this cluster, I knew very little about art history and restoration. I had no idea it was such a mess out there! Seeing the two sides in the issue really helped me understand how conservation of important historical pieces has become more difficult and complicated.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing your cluster. I used the same program and I like how the colors allow you to organize the information in an even more visual manner. Like Casey, I know little about art history and it is interesting to see the ideas that are a concern to other fields of study. And to talk about what you thought of your cluster, I found I could read it. Mine is set up starting with the pros and cons of my issue, but it seems your controversy is a bit more complex than mine.
ReplyDeleteI like how you used pretty simple sentences to describe your idea but it made it a lot easier to look at and a lot less intimidating. That is something I can work for on my own cluster.
Your cluster is really informative! i can see you put a lot of information into yours. I really found it organized and easily able to read. I also used coggle to create my cluster. So by seeing yours, I am able to see where i should have made more connections. I like how you took big ideas and broke them down as well.
ReplyDeleteI can tell there is a lot to know about your controversy! We both used Coggle, which I thought was cool, and yours was a lot more broken down than mine was. I kind of chunked info together into little segments and presented them that way, but I also liked the way you organized yours. Mine looks scarier than yours, as yours is spread out and a lot more user friendly. I should probably do some editing to mine. :)
