Adding Images to VUE
Drag the link down to the
toolbar, to “VUE: New Map”
Instructions
Once you drop the link into VUE, the picture will show up on your Map.
You can repeat this until you have added all the pictures.
To connect the images, you can use the “Link Tool”.
This is a “NODE”
• To create a link between two nodes click on the first node and
“Link Tool” drag your mouse to the second node. Once a successful link
has been created the second node will glow green.
Then you can release the mouse.
• You can then write on the link to describe the connection
between the two images.
• All nodes must be labeled clearly and correctly identify the
image content.
When connecting two images, it

Uploading Concept Map to
MOODLE



There will be a link under “Social Activities
Tab” where you will upload the final concept
map.
You will upload both versions (.vpk and .jpg)
onto Moodle. (We will show you how and where
next week.)
If you have any questions, you may view this
presentation at your leisure on Moodle.
Participation


Each group member will be required to report
his or her own contribution to the final map, as
well as to comment on the performance of other
group members. This will be done via a survey
on Moodle.
THE SURVEY RESULTS MAY BE USED
TO “ADJUST” MAP GRADES.
DO NOT LEAVE THIS FOR
THE DAY BEFORE IT IS DUE….
It will take some time to get used to the VUE tools!
Remember the CONCEPT MAP is worth 7 POINTS!
