This happened to me 6 years ago for my first open book test for law at university. I knew that I didn’t get 5% because I was stupid. All of that changed when I learnt how to mind map. For my next test for law (they gave me a second chance), all that I brought in with me was a bunch of simple mind maps. Why do mind maps work so well as a study tool? How can you mind map?

Step 5: Draw another main branch but this time use a different colour. Step 7: Voila!

You can find out more about how to create a Mind Map step-by-step. Firstly, Mind Maps are a great way for students to make notes on all of the information they receive. Do you ever feel like, as students, you are being told a ton of facts and figures and have no way to get it all down and remember it? Mind Maps help students to note down only the most important information using key words, and then make connections between facts and ideas visually – keeping all of your topic thoughts together on one sheet.

MindNode Inspiration Software announces Inspiration Diagrams for the iPad Feb 10th, 2012 | By Chuck Frey | Category: Mobile Mapping Tools Called Inspiration Diagrams, the new visual thinking app is designed to help students in grades 6-12 to create visual diagrams and outlines that help them to clarify their thoughts, organize and analyze information, integrate new knowledge and learn to think critically. Inspiration will lead off with an abridged version of the app, Diagrams Lite, which will be available for free in the AppStore in March. That will be followed by a full version, which will be available for purchase in April. Why is this product launch significant? You know this education revolution is picking up serious momentum when even the Catholic church in the small town where I live is incorporating iPads into one of its grade school classrooms! The challenge, I suspect, will be for teachers to actually figure out how they will integrate Diagrams into their curricula.
