Here's the one that I made on American Abstract Expressionists:
It includes a textbook that can be referenced for more info for students, and the state standards/technology standards for educational reference.
Inspiration can be pretty cool by allowing you to add bubbles and links to images, websites, and other information to enhance the experience. Notes can be added to items to give more clarity or explanation. Bubble outlines and fill colors can be customized, as well as the background. Images can be imported by simply dragging them into the workspace, or the program provides a library of clip art images to use as well.
The only drawbacks I have with the program are mainly just design and aesthetic issues. I feel I could make something even better with Photoshop or Illustrator (more versatile image/text editing options) but Inspiration's ability to embed links, video, and sound make it worthwhile.
If you're looking for a program to do hands-on brainstorming activities with your students, give Inspiration a try. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
