Mindmapping Software

Mind Mapping is an effective productivity tool that has been used throughout all levels of education for many generations. It is a useful technique that supports learning by improving information processing and retention through showing how ideas are related.

About this range:

By creating a diagram consisting of interconnected topics, subtopics and notes, students and professionals can deal with complex information such as strategy development, business planning or assignment preparation.

Mind Maps are useful for increasing productivity as large projects can be easily broken down into more manageable chunks without being overwhelmed or forgetting important information. Mind Mapping can also be a useful SEND (special educational needs and disabilities) resource. By being able to lay information out clearly, students with special educational needs such as dyslexia, often find it easier to organise thoughts and be more productive.

However, there were several obstacles to traditional pen and paper Mind Mapping. Paper size could be restrictive and running out of space is a common problem. Losing the mind map is another typical issue and if it was done collaboratively, only one student can take the physical copy home.

Mind Mapping software overcomes all of these obstacles and presents a convenient and efficient way to learn. MindManager allows students to work on mind maps collaboratively either in the classroom in groups or remotely logging in to the mind map and working on it together. The interactive maps give students and professionals the ability to turn scattered ideas and data into a clear visual mind map which can evolve to be as big as necessary. There are also some built in templates to begin the organisation process.

Another powerful Mind Mapping software is WonderShare EdrawMind. Mind Maps created on WonderShare EdrawMind software can be worked on collaboratively in real time and turned into engaging presentations. With a wide range of templates, examples, elements and functions, WonderShare EdrawMind gives the flexibility to display information in the most effective way.

The irony of shopping around for productivity software is that it is time consuming. Time which would be better spent focussing on more important tasks.
