Final Thoughts

I think it is worth it to pay for the site. There are many benefits (as you can see in the pricing section of the mind map). I would pay for the Teacher package because it makes collaboration super easy between teacher and students and student to student.

I wanted to try to show a lot of the various functions and why I think it is worth the investment without having to explain it all. I think seeing it in action is the best way to sell itself.

This mind map shows by itself why it is worth the investment.
