Both Intel tools seem like great teaching tools. The visual ranking tool as modeled in class is a great discussion starter. Everyone values things differently and it is the teacher's job to make sure students can adequately voice their reasons why they rank things a certain way. This is very important in writing.
The seeing reason tool is excellent for cause and effect relationships. This can be useful for organizing complex plots in novels and stories. I tried making a character web with it but it didn't come out exactly the way I wanted it since the tool is more concerned with how things are greater and lesser rather than equally connected.
Oh, and free things are always good things in my book. Good job Intel!
