===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Ubuntu OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
#The application is part of the Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;

# Download the installation file from [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JO2S58B4TFVEyGJAcotskiN4MPz_UHW0/view?usp=sharing this link].&lt;br /&gt;
# When the download is complete, find the downloaded .dmg file and double on click it.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;270px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane5_inserting_notes.png|Node with a note added&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane6_howtoaddnote.png|How to add a note&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane4_inserting_hyperlink.png|Node with a hyperlink&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane3_inserting_hyperlink.png|Linking to resources on the internet&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplanelinkfile.png|Linking to resources on the computer &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you unable to do anything on the map, you will be inside the &amp;#039;View Mode&amp;#039;. Kindly change it to &amp;#039;Edit mode&amp;#039;, so that you can edit the map. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;Maps--&amp;gt;Edit Mode&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Ubuntu OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
#The application is part of the Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;

# Download the installation file from [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JO2S58B4TFVEyGJAcotskiN4MPz_UHW0/view?usp=sharing this link].&lt;br /&gt;
# When the download is complete, find the downloaded .dmg file and double on click it.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;

=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane4_inserting_hyperlink.png|Node with a hyperlink&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplanelinkfile.png|Linking to resources on the computer &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you unable to do anything on the map, you will be inside the &amp;#039;View Mode&amp;#039;. Kindly change it to &amp;#039;Edit mode&amp;#039;, so that you can edit the map. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;Maps--&amp;gt;Edit Mode&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Version&lt;br /&gt;
|Version - 1.10.2&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Configuration&lt;br /&gt;
|This tool has no specific configuration requirements. It is available as a part of Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane is part of the Ubuntu GNU/Linux operating system. It is also available for download on [https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeplane/ Windows] and Mac operating systems as well. &lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Ubuntu OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
#The application is part of the Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;
#In case you do not find it on your computer, you can install by typing Freeplane on top search bar in Software Centre(App Grid). &lt;br /&gt;
#If you would like to install through the terminal follow these steps below: &lt;br /&gt;

# Download the installation file from [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JO2S58B4TFVEyGJAcotskiN4MPz_UHW0/view?usp=sharing this link].&lt;br /&gt;
# When the download is complete, find the downloaded .dmg file and double on click it.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane5_inserting_notes.png|Node with a note added&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Version&lt;br /&gt;
|Version - 1.10.2&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Configuration&lt;br /&gt;
|This tool has no specific configuration requirements. It is available as a part of Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane is part of the Ubuntu GNU/Linux operating system. It is also available for download on [https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeplane/ Windows] and Mac operating systems as well. &lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;270px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane4_inserting_hyperlink.png|Node with a hyperlink&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplanelinkfile.png|Linking to resources on the computer &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you unable to do anything on the map, you will be inside the &amp;#039;View Mode&amp;#039;. Kindly change it to &amp;#039;Edit mode&amp;#039;, so that you can edit the map. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;Maps--&amp;gt;Edit Mode&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Ubuntu OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
#The application is part of the Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;
#In case you do not find it on your computer, you can install by typing Freeplane on top search bar in Software Centre(App Grid). &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===== For MAC OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
# Download the installation file from [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JO2S58B4TFVEyGJAcotskiN4MPz_UHW0/view?usp=sharing this link].&lt;br /&gt;
# When the download is complete, find the downloaded .dmg file and double on click it.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplanelinkfile.png|Linking to resources on the computer &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;

=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you unable to do anything on the map, you will be inside the &amp;#039;View Mode&amp;#039;. Kindly change it to &amp;#039;Edit mode&amp;#039;, so that you can edit the map. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;Maps--&amp;gt;Edit Mode&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am getting a pop window with some version ?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Version&lt;br /&gt;
|Version - 1.10.2&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Ubuntu OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
#The application is part of the Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Can I embed video and audio files to the concept map?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No we can’t embed Video or audio files to concept map, But you can hyperlink the local file path so that you can open it by clicking the link when presenting it.&lt;br /&gt;

===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Version&lt;br /&gt;
|Version - 1.10.2&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Configuration&lt;br /&gt;
|This tool has no specific configuration requirements. It is available as a part of Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane is part of the Ubuntu GNU/Linux operating system. It is also available for download on [https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeplane/ Windows] and Mac operating systems as well. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Ubuntu OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
#The application is part of the Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;
#In case you do not find it on your computer, you can install by typing Freeplane on top search bar in Software Centre(App Grid). &lt;br /&gt;
#If you would like to install through the terminal follow these steps below: &lt;br /&gt;
##Open terminal by clicking Applications-&amp;gt;System Tools-&amp;gt;Terminal or through Keyboard shortcut &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;Ctrl+Alt+T&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
##In the terminal window, type below command and press enter to start the installation by providing your machine password:&lt;br /&gt;
##&amp;lt;code&amp;gt;sudo apt-get install freeplane&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Windows OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
To install and use Freeplane on your Windows computer, you need to install both Freeplane and Java runtime packages in your Windows computer.&lt;br /&gt;
# Download the Freeplane-Windows-Installer-x.x.xx from [https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeplane/ this link]  and download Java Runtime Environment from [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1b1t8lf6FonhRA7KgRyMQBf6ppXHAb_JU/view?usp=sharing this link]. You can save these two executable (.exe for windows/.dmg for MAC) files to your desktop or any other location in your computer.&lt;br /&gt;
# Once you download both files, double-click on &amp;quot;Freeplane-Setup-...exe/dmg&amp;quot; file to begin the installation.&lt;br /&gt;
# Click &amp;quot;Yes&amp;quot; if it ask your permission to allow this program make change to the computer, Keep clicking on &amp;quot;Next&amp;quot; button to continue and complete the installation.&lt;br /&gt;
#Also install downloaded java runtime package from the above same method. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} To download the latest of Java version please [https://www.java.com/download/ie_manual.jsp Click here]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== For MAC OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
# Download the installation file from [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JO2S58B4TFVEyGJAcotskiN4MPz_UHW0/view?usp=sharing this link].&lt;br /&gt;
# When the download is complete, find the downloaded .dmg file and double on click it.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;270px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;

====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;270px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane4_inserting_hyperlink.png|Node with a hyperlink&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplanelinkfile.png|Linking to resources on the computer &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Ubuntu OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
#The application is part of the Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;

# Download the installation file from [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JO2S58B4TFVEyGJAcotskiN4MPz_UHW0/view?usp=sharing this link].&lt;br /&gt;
# When the download is complete, find the downloaded .dmg file and double on click it.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;270px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane4_inserting_hyperlink.png|Node with a hyperlink&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplanelinkfile.png|Linking to resources on the computer &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Ubuntu OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
#The application is part of the Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;

=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;270px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane4_inserting_hyperlink.png|Node with a hyperlink&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplanelinkfile.png|Linking to resources on the computer &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;

=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;270px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane4_inserting_hyperlink.png|Node with a hyperlink&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplanelinkfile.png|Linking to resources on the computer &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Ubuntu OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
#The application is part of the Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===== For MAC OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
# Download the installation file from [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JO2S58B4TFVEyGJAcotskiN4MPz_UHW0/view?usp=sharing this link].&lt;br /&gt;
# When the download is complete, find the downloaded .dmg file and double on click it.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;270px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane linking nodes.png|Connect two nodes&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=300px&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplanelinkfile.png|Linking to resources on the computer &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. It allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Freeplane is a tool to create concept map that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;

# Download the installation file from [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JO2S58B4TFVEyGJAcotskiN4MPz_UHW0/view?usp=sharing this link].&lt;br /&gt;
# When the download is complete, find the downloaded .dmg file and double on click it.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Working with the application ===&lt;br /&gt;
# To download mindmap file [https://teacher-network.in/OER/images/9/9c/Learning_Digital_Story_Telling.mm click here] (To download the example mindmap file, &amp;quot;Right click on &amp;#039;click here&amp;#039; in the above line--&amp;gt; Click Save link as&amp;quot;. Then give the path to save the file.)&lt;br /&gt;
# &lt;br /&gt;
====Creating a map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Creating a concept map&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane1_Opening_Freeplane.png|Opening Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node. Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Here as an example, we have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} You can Zoom in and Zoom out the map according to your requirement. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;View --&amp;gt; Zoom --&amp;gt; Zoom In/Out&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss the concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are related, but not in a parent-child-sibling relationship and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you want to select more than one node, you can press and hold Ctrl key and click on the the nodes. This process allows you to select multiple random things at a time.{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot;. Alternatively, you can &amp;quot;right click on the node you want to add a note --&amp;gt; Click on Edit note in a dialogue&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Inserting image to FP.jpg|Inserting Image&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image to the map, you must have the image stored in your computer. You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplanelinkfile.png|Linking to resources on the computer &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Adding different shapes to the node ====&lt;br /&gt;
In Freeplane node need not be a plain one. Node and its content can be well customized with different shapes. Generally we call it as Cloud. A cloud covers the entire area of a node and its contents and can take shape like Arc, Star, Rectangle etc.&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Insert cloud FP.png|Inserting cloud to the node&lt;br /&gt;
File:Node Core properties.png|Node core properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
* The nodes can be designed in variety of attractive ways and we can also customize it according to our needs. &lt;br /&gt;
* To do that, Select the particular node for which the cloud properties need to be customized.&lt;br /&gt;
* Go to &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt; Cloud&amp;quot;. Select the style of cloud you want. &lt;br /&gt;
* You can also change the cloud color. &lt;br /&gt;
* Some of the properties for a node can be changed in Format menu such as style, look etc. For this, Go to &amp;quot;Format--&amp;gt; Node core&amp;quot;. Choose the various properties and make your map attractive.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Like other softwares, Freeplane also contains keyboard shortcuts which makes our work much simpler. For such short [https://freeplane.sourceforge.io/doc/FP_Key_Mappings_Quick_Guide.pdf Shortcut keys]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Advanced Features ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Typing in regional language in concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Inserting Icons to the map =====&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Freeplane Icons.png|thumb|Example of Icons in Freeplane]]&lt;br /&gt;
Icons are special symbols which makes the map more attractive and understanding. User can include variety of Icons to the Node or data just to give a hint to the viewer about its background. For example, you want to set a reminder for a particular item in the map. In this case you can put a symbol to make the viewer understand its status. To insert Icon to the map, click on node to which the Icon need to be placed --&amp;gt; Insert --&amp;gt; Icons --&amp;gt; Icons by Table. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===== Blinking nodes =====&lt;br /&gt;
You can make a particular node to blink in Freeplane. Blinking simply highlights the things with various colors. To do this, you can select any Node to which the effect should apply --&amp;gt; Format --&amp;gt; Node core --&amp;gt; Tick &amp;#039;Blinking Node&amp;#039;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further. Even it is easier to share when the map is exported as a PDF (.pdf) or an image (.png) file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

===Introduction===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Basic information ====&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Version&lt;br /&gt;
|Version - 1.10.2&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Configuration&lt;br /&gt;
|This tool has no specific configuration requirements. It is available as a part of Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane is part of the Ubuntu GNU/Linux operating system. It is also available for download on [https://sourceforge.net/projects/freeplane/ Windows] and Mac operating systems as well. &lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Other similar applications&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane allows you to create concept map, as a textual resource that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. Freeplane allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;
===== For Ubuntu OS =====&lt;br /&gt;
#The application is part of the Ubuntu custom distribution. &lt;br /&gt;
#In case you do not find it on your computer, you can install by typing Freeplane on top search bar in Software Centre(App Grid). &lt;br /&gt;
#If you would like to install through the terminal follow these steps below: &lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. We have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane connector properties.png|Connector properties&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are connected, and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes and note window====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300px&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane_-_moving_nodes.gif|Moving nodes&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;300&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Inserting Image Freeplane.png|Inserting Image in Freeplane&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Hyperlinking files and web links ====&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;200px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Adding hyperlinks&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer. The third image shows how to choose a file from your folders to link.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==== Type regional language in your concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder. &lt;br /&gt;
# However, the concept map can be saved in many other formats. You can export the map to a text document file (in .odt or .doc formats). You can also export the map as an image (in .png or .jpeg formats) or as a web page (in .html format), as shown in the second image.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you unable to do anything on the map, you will be inside the &amp;#039;View Mode&amp;#039;. Kindly change it to &amp;#039;Edit mode&amp;#039;, so that you can edit the map. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;Maps--&amp;gt;Edit Mode&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;

{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
|ICT Competency&lt;br /&gt;
|Freeplane is a free and open source software application that helps you create and edit concept map, as a generic resource. For the purpose of this section, we can treat &amp;#039;concept mapping&amp;#039; as nearly synonymous with &amp;#039;mind mapping&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Educational application and relevance&lt;br /&gt;
|Making concept maps can support thinking, brainstorming, sharing information and documenting meetings and group processes. &lt;br /&gt;
Educators consider that concept mapping is a good approach for building skills in students for ideating and organizing ideas; they also find it a great asset for teaching. It is a great tool for students to help them organize their thought processes when writing. Teachers and students can use this application to collaboratively or individually create concept maps on an idea or explore a problem.&lt;br /&gt;

====Overview of Features====&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane allows you to create concept map, as a textual resource that can be organized graphically, in the form of a map or tree of ideas. It provides a pictorial overview of the concepts, related concepts / sub-concepts for a topic. Freeplane helps you to create a textual OER with possibilities for linking to additional resources (on your computer as well as on the web), adding annotations as well as images. Freeplane allows you to organize and order ideas into a hierarchy connected by lines (edges). Nodes can also be linked with free lines (connectors) and labels. The concept map can be exported as an image as well as a text document.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Installation====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane2_rootnode.png|Main window of Freeplane  &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
To learn working with Freeplane, we will start creating a concept map for Digital Story Telling; you will see above that Freeplane has opened a window with a box with text &amp;quot;New mindmap&amp;quot;. This node, also called the &amp;quot;Root node&amp;quot; will contain the core idea/ theme to be discussed in the concept map. You can click on &amp;quot;File&amp;quot; option to &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; this map; when the map is saved it will get saved with the name in the root node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;
Concept maps can be stored in your folders; they are saved with an extension &amp;quot;.mm&amp;quot;. We have created a concept map called Learning Digital Story Telling. After the root node is created, additional ideas are added by adding more nodes, called child nodes. The concept map gets built by adding further child nodes, for topics and sub-topics. You can keep adding child nodes to any node. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘insert’ key to create a ‘child node’ this is a sub-concept of your current concept. &lt;br /&gt;
# Use the ‘enter’ key to create a ‘sibling’ this is a parallel concept to your current concept.&lt;br /&gt;
Thus you can create a concept map  with knowing just two functions – add child node (insert) and add sibling node (enter). In this manner, a concept map can be used to classify and categorize information.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250px&amp;quot; caption=&amp;quot;Child and sibling nodes&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Conceptmap2.png|Child Node&lt;br /&gt;
File:COL - Concept Map on DST.png|Sibling Node&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Our map has nodes for the ‘why’, ‘what’ and ‘how’ of DST, with sub-nodes. &lt;br /&gt;
#The first image shows the creation of a concept map with the first child node.&lt;br /&gt;
#The second image shows the completed concept map with child nodes and sibling nodes.&lt;br /&gt;
You can go to the next line in a node for text by giving pressing SHIFT+ENTER. This command will make the cursor to go the next line.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Linking nodes====&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#When you discuss concepts, you can notice that sometimes concepts are connected, and you want to link them to study in detail. For doing this you can add a graphical link (an arrow) to connect two nodes. To do this select two nodes, then go to Menu Bar and choose &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Connect&amp;quot; option. Then you can see graphical link which is connected to two nodes. You can click on the arrow and move it around.&lt;br /&gt;
#By right clicking on graphical link(connector) you will get the window as shown in second image. In that you can change connector color, shape, size and direction. You can also add or remove the source node label, middle node label, target node label. &lt;br /&gt;
{{clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Adding notes and note window====&lt;br /&gt;

File:Freeplane7_note_window.png|Typing in the note window&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
#In our Learning Digital Story Telling concept map, you will also see a yellow label beside the arrow and if you place your mouse over the yellow label, you will see a note description. &lt;br /&gt;
#To add a note, you can click on the node, as shown in the second image, go to &amp;quot;View---&amp;gt;Notes---&amp;gt;Display note panel&amp;quot; &lt;br /&gt;
#You can type your note in the note window which opens as shown in the third image. You can change the position and size of this note window.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Moving nodes ====&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move nodes from one position to other position or to disconnect a node from its current parent and connect it to another parent you can simply click and drag it to its new location. Each node has two positions where you can drop another node. These positions are visible if the cursor is above it. &lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the top of the target node, the whole upper half lights up. If you drop a node here, the node will become a sibling above the target node.&lt;br /&gt;
* If the cursor is near the child side of the target node, the left or right side of the node lights up. If you drop the node here it will be connected as a child node.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Inserting Images to the Map ====&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* You can insert the image to the map first by selecting the node under which the image should be displayed.&lt;br /&gt;
* To insert an image, You can go the menu &amp;quot;Insert--&amp;gt;Image--&amp;gt;Add Image&amp;quot;. You can browse for the image you have on your system.&lt;br /&gt;
* Alternatively, you can right click on the &amp;quot;Node--&amp;gt;Add Image --&amp;gt; Add Image&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
* Once image gets inserted onto the Map, you can resize it by moving the cursor to the right bottom of the image and then dragging it as per your requirement.&lt;br /&gt;

# In the first image, did you notice the red arrow in the root node of our concept map? This main node has a hyper-link which opens the Wikipedia page on digital story telling. You can embed a hyper-link on a node, such that clicking on the node can connect to related resources. In our Learning Digital Story Telling .mm concept map, we have inserted a hyper-link for the main node ‘Learning Digital Story Telling’. &lt;br /&gt;
# To do this Move your cursor to this node and select &amp;quot;Edit --&amp;gt; Link --&amp;gt; Add or Modify hyperlink&amp;quot; (type). You can also use the keyboard short cut CTRL-K. Freeplane will open an input bar as shown in the second image. We will type in our web page address &amp;#039;&amp;#039;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_storytelling&amp;#039;&amp;#039; into this input bar.&lt;br /&gt;
# You can also add a hyperlink to a local file on your computer. If you select When you click on &amp;quot;Edit--&amp;gt;Link--&amp;gt;Add Hyperlink&amp;quot; (choose) allows you to link to a file on a folder on your computer.

{{Clear}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Type regional language in your concept map ====&lt;br /&gt;
To type any Indian regional languages in your concept map, you need to download and install the Sakal Bharati font &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GD8Dj0zKzd7aujcZitjDFRhXnNSlAek6/view?usp=sharing from this link]&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (after your download, double click on the downloaded &amp;quot;SakalBharati.ttf&amp;quot; file, click on install font to install the font in your computer). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Now, configure SakalBharathi as the default font in your Freeplane tool.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Open a Freeplane tool, Goto &amp;quot;Format --&amp;gt; Manage styles --&amp;gt; Edit Styles&amp;quot;. This will open a concept map standard template (like in below gif).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Configure sakal bharati dafault.gif|Configuring the Sakal Bharati font &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# From the Menubar, Goto &amp;quot;Navigate -&amp;gt; click all visible nodes&amp;quot;. &lt;br /&gt;
# Now on the right-side properties window go to &amp;quot;Font of whole core&amp;quot;, Font family select &amp;quot;Sakal Bharati font&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
# After you configure, click on the right mark (green colour) on the top left window.&lt;br /&gt;
# Now you just close and reopen concept map to see the Sakal Bharati is your default font.&lt;br /&gt;
Now, you should able to type regional languages in your concept map using Sakal Bharati font. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;{{Note}} After installing the font in your computer, If you are not able to configure Sakal Bharati as a default font. You can follow below steps to type regional language at one time. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Regional language typing.gif|Regional Language typing &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Open Freeplane, select the node where you want to type, change the font from sans serif to Sakal Bharati from the font list on top. Now, you can type any Indian regional language in the node. For every new node before typing, you have to select Sakal Bharati font and type.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Saving and exporting====&lt;br /&gt;
Like in most applications, a file can be saved using the &amp;quot;File --&amp;gt; Save&amp;quot; command, or by the shortcut key CTRL+S. Always give a meaningful file name, reading which you should get an idea of contents. Freeplane saves files with a .mm extension. You can also export a concept map to image (png or jpeg), text (odt and html) and pdf formats. &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;250&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane saving file.png|Saving the Map&lt;br /&gt;
File:Freeplane exporting file.png|Exporting the Map&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# By default your concept map is saved by Freeplane as a &amp;#039;.mm&amp;#039; format file as shown in the first image. While saving the file, Freeplane will display the file browser, to allow you to select the folder in which you can save your file. By default, the file is saved in your home folder. &lt;br /&gt;
# However, the concept map can be saved in many other formats. You can export the map to a text document file (in .odt or .doc formats). You can also export the map as an image (in .png or .jpeg formats) or as a web page (in .html format), as shown in the second image.&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} If you save the Map in .odt format all the content in your map will appear as table of contents. The Main node will be the name of the chapter, sub nodes will be the sub points and so on. Whenever it is required to print the map as it is then better option will be to export it in .pdf extension.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Ideas for resource creation===&lt;br /&gt;
Freeplane a good tool to start your resource creation work. You should develop a concept map for the topic you want to develop a resource on. The ideas you have about the topic, the sequencing of ideas and sub concepts, the specific points for each idea / sub-concept can be developed on the map. Links between nodes, with web pages, notes explaining concepts can all be inserted in the concept map. The power of the digital concept map is that you can keep revising the nodes, adding and deleting, moving and copying nodes as you want. This makes the process quite dynamic. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once you have completed your concept map you can share it with your colleagues for feedback with which you can refine the concept map still further.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Exporting a concept map to a document for further fleshing out&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The advantage of a concept map is that you can categorize and arrange your thinking the way you want to.  You can enter detailed notes for any node. When you export it to a ODT, you can see this as a document, with the &amp;#039;note&amp;#039; information being the text in the note, and all the nodes will become headings. This way you can even write a document using Freeplane. Use this whenever you are writing an essay or  an article or a paper&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Note}} Before exporting it into ODT you should format freeplane file to automatic layout for all nodes. To do this follow this step. &amp;quot;Go to Format-&amp;gt; Automatic Layout-&amp;gt; for all nodes&amp;quot; and select it. This will format nodes to headings, child nodes to sub headings and notes to text source.&lt;br /&gt;
===Frequently Asked Questions===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;After upload/share my concept map on the Internet, inserted Images are not displaying&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you insert an image into your concept map, you do not actually &amp;#039;save&amp;#039; the image inside the concept map.  Freeplane will only store the &amp;#039;path&amp;#039; information, that is the location of the image file on your computer. Now when you mail the concept map to someone else or upload it on a web page, the image is not shared along with the concept map. When the map is opened by another person, Freeplane will try to locate the image again in the same location as it is in your computer, and will fail to find it. Hence, the image will not appear.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One way of not facing this problem would be to hyperlink to an image on the web/internet. In which case when you click on the link, Freeplane will try to get the image from the web, and if there is connectivity you will be able to access the image. Hence, the images not appearing subsequently is not a problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to edit the map in any way, what can I do?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you unable to do anything on the map, you will be inside the &amp;#039;View Mode&amp;#039;. Kindly change it to &amp;#039;Edit mode&amp;#039;, so that you can edit the map. To do this, Click on &amp;quot;Maps--&amp;gt;Edit Mode&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;I am unable to open Freeplane on my system&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is to be noted that Freeplane requires latest version of Java to be present in your system. Sometimes the issue can also be because you are trying to install Freeplane with a latest version but Java is obsolete or even vice versa. So make sure that you have the latest version of Java in your system. If not, click on this link to download the latest version of Java. To check the version of Java installed on your system, Open Command prompt or Terminal and type &amp;quot;java -version&amp;quot; and press Enter.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Working with application ===&lt;br /&gt;
Vokoscreen is a FOSS desktop application, which will allow you to record the computer screen along with your audio input, live recordings of the browser, videoconferences. VokoscreenNG also captures your face using a webcam at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Getting familiar with application ====&lt;br /&gt;
You can access Vokoscreen from the Ubuntu applications menu. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Step_to_open_the_Vokoscreen_.png|This can be opened from Applications &amp;gt; Sound &amp;amp; Video &amp;gt; VokoscreenNG&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== The Vokoscreen User Interface ====&lt;br /&gt;
The Vokoscreen home screen has a user interface with setting tabs such are screen, Audio, Video, General settings, and Webcam settings.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Home_page_of_Vokoscreen_.png|Home page of VokoscreenNG&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There is some standard button that will always appear on the bottom of the Vokoscreen window. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   Start: button starts the recording process&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   Stop: button stops the recording&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   Pause: The Pause button pauses the video, which can be resumed using the Start button&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   Play: The Play button lets you play your recording back&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   Send: Send button lets you mail the video.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Audio Settings ====&lt;br /&gt;
The second tab on the screen (denoted by the microphone symbol) allows you to do audio settings to improve audio quality. You can choose whether to record audio or not, you can set the audio input either from the monitor or from the microphone to record from using the checkboxes provided.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Audio_setting_in_Vokoscreen.png|Audio settings of VokoscreenNG&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Recording settings ====&lt;br /&gt;
Once you&amp;#039;ve configured your settings, you&amp;#039;re ready to finally record your screen.  To start recording your video, press Start at the bottom of the window. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;gallery mode=&amp;quot;packed&amp;quot; heights=&amp;quot;350px&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
File:Start_recording_in_vokoscreen.png|Click on start for recording in VokoscreenNG&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/gallery&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As soon as you press &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Start&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, Vokoscreen will begin recording. Everything you do from here out will be part of your video ( if you want to temporarily stop recording, press Pause. When you press Start again, Vokoscreen will pick back up where it left off)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you&amp;#039;re done recording, maximize the Vokoscreen window again, and press Stop. Also, you can use the below shortcut keys to start, pause and stop recording.&lt;br /&gt;
# Start recording: &amp;lt;CTRL + SHIFT + F10&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
# Pause recording: &amp;lt;CTRL + SHIFT + F12&lt;br /&gt;
# Stop recording: &amp;lt;CTRL + SHIFT + F11&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
After you stop your recording, you can safely close the Vokoscreen window, and your recording will be located in the folder that you configured under the Settings tab (In Ubuntu by default recording will be saved under the &amp;quot;Videos&amp;quot; folder).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;===Course background===&lt;br /&gt;
Regional Institute of English, South India (RIESI) and IT for Change (ITfC) are collaborating to design and conduct an online course on “Audio resources creation for language teaching ” for English language teachers, who are participating in the CELT program of RIESI. The course is based on the National ICT curriculum theme “Creating with ICT”. This note discusses the objectives, approach, requirements of the participants and expected outcomes from the course.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Objectives of the course===&lt;br /&gt;
# To understand the connection between the word and the thought (can we communicate abstract ideas without words, i.e., sounds) and to recognize that the combinations of sounds and what they describe is arbitrary&lt;br /&gt;
# To explore new digital methods for language learning. Exploring Audacity FOSS ([[wikipedia:Free_and_open-source_software|Free and Open Source Software]]) tool to create rich language resources for use in a language lesson&lt;br /&gt;
# To learn to record and editing audio using Audacity. Making your audio resource richer by using multiple audio files (background music)&lt;br /&gt;
# To introduce the philosophy of creating and adapting existing audio resources ([[wikipedia:Open_educational_resources|Open Educational Resources created with FOSS]])&lt;br /&gt;
# To publish created audio resource on a [https://soundcloud.com/it-for-change/sets/riesi-celt-audio-workshop-jan public repository] for the benefit of all teachers&lt;br /&gt;
