Abstract Mind maps that combine text, images, color and layout elements, have been widely used in classroom teaching to improve retention, knowledge organization and conceptual understanding. Furthermore, studies have shown the advantages of using mind maps to facilitate collaborative learning. However, there are gaps in the literature regarding the use and study of collaborative mind mapping in online learning settings. This integrated-article dissertation explores the implementation of online collaborative mind mapping activities in a mathematics teacher education program at a Canadian university. The studies were developed with participants enrolled in three different courses where at least two of the online activities used collaborative mind mapping for knowledge construction.

  • Utilizing Mind-Maps for Information Retrieval and User Modelling
    Preprint, to be published at UMAP 2014. Downloaded from http://docear.org Utilizing Mind-Maps for Information Retrieval and User Modelling Joeran Beel1,2, Stefan Langer1,2, Marcel Genzmehr1, Bela Gipp1,3 1 Docear, Magdeburg, Germany 2 Otto-von-Guericke University, Magdeburg, Germany 3 University of California, Berkeley, USA {beel | langer | genzmehr | gipp}@docear.org Abstract. Mind-maps have been widely neglected by the information retrieval (IR) community. However, there are an estimated two million active mind-map users, who create 5 million mind-maps every year, of which a total of 300,000 is publicly available. We believe this to be a rich source for information retriev- al applications, and present eight ideas on how mind-maps could be utilized by them. For instance, mind-maps could be utilized to generate user models for recommender systems or expert search, or to calculate relatedness of web-pages that are linked in mind-maps. We evaluated the feasibility of the eight ideas, based on estimates of the number of available mind-maps, an analysis of the content of mind-maps, and an evaluation of the users’ acceptance of the ideas. We concluded that user modelling is the most promising application with re- spect to mind-maps. A user modelling prototype – a recommender system for the users of our mind-mapping software Docear – was implemented, and evalu- ated. Depending on the applied user modelling approaches, the effectiveness, i.e. click-through rate on recommendations, varied between 0.28% and 6.24%. This indicates that mind-map based user modelling is promising, but not trivial, and that further research is required to increase effectiveness.

  • How to Integrate Evernote with Mind Mapping Applications
    How to integrate Evernote with mind mapping applications Since its launch in 2008, Evernote has evolved into a powerful tool for taking notes and capturing all types of digital content. Its growth rate has been amazing; as of February of this year, it has over 50 million users, with 100,000 a day signing up for it. Developers of mind mapping and visual thinking applications have embraced Evernote, integrating with it in a number of different ways. In this report, I will provide you with an overview of the desktop- and web-based mind mapping and visual thinking applications that integrate with Evernote. I will describe how they work together and the pros and cons of each developer’s approach. As a writer, I have a strong personal interest in this topic. I have been using Evernote for several years as my primary tool for capturing content ideas. I also do a significant amount of writing within it, mainly because Evernote does a fantastic job of giving me instant access to all of my notes no matter where I go or what computing platform I’m using. I also find it useful for Evernote-Mind Map Integration Page 2 gathering research for reports I’m working on. Evernote’s web clipper enables me to quickly and easily capture all or part of any web page, tag it and store it in a folder of my choice. So naturally, for larger reports and projects, I’m keenly interested in developing new ways to incorporate the great content and ideas I’ve gathered in Evernote into my mind maps.

  • Profiling a Mind Map User: a Descriptive Appraisal
    Journal of Instructional Pedagogies Profiling a mind map user: a descriptive appraisal Joanne M. Tucker Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania Gary R. Armstrong Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania Victor J. Massad Kutztown University of Pennsylvania Abstract Whether created manually or through the use of software, a non -linear information organization framework known as mind mapping offers an alternative method for capturing thoughts, ideas and information to lin ear thinking modes, such as outlining. Mind mapping is used in education, government and business as a creative method that is useful in training, brainstorming, organizing and problem solving. This paper examines mind mapping techniques, advantages and di sadvantages of hand -drawn maps and using mind mapping software. Several mind-mapping software applications are compared on a number of product dimensions. Survey results provide a descriptive profile of mind map users in education, government and business sectors. Keywords: mind mapping, mind mapping software, mind map user profile Profiling a mind map user, Page 1 Journal of Instructional Pedagogies Introduction to Mind Maps The mind mapping technique, along with the term “mind map,” originated with popular psychology author Tony Buzan (1970), who developed the technique as a way of helping people to learn more effectively. His work is partly based on the pioneering brain research of the 50’s as well as left/right brain work by Roger Wolcott Sperry (1968) which was later refined by Robert Ornstein (1977). The bod y of this research indicates that the human brain responds best to key words, images, colors, and direct association. Buzan refined these ideas into a simple set of rules that can be followed to create a maze of information known as a mind map.

  • Mind Maps for Genealogy
    Mind Maps for Genealogy Presented to SCCHGS January 19, 2016 by Ron Arons Mind Map of Handout Created with XMind 1. What are mind maps? - Graphical/visual outlining tools - Used by individuals and corporations alike - Have been used for centuries - Products and services to automate creation of mind maps available for 10+ years - Normally used for brainstorming and (more) creative thinking 2. How are mind maps different from other tools used for genealogical research and reporting? - They work well with unstructured data as well as structured data (spreadsheets and std. genealogical programs normally work with structured data) - More visual and colorful than spreadsheets, genealogy programs, and narratives - A general tool; not designed specifically for genealogy (a pro and a con) 3. Uses of mind maps for genealogy: - Research planning - Keeping a research log - Data correlation and analysis (This is where they truly excel!) - Tackling difficult 'brick wall' problems - Reporting final results 4. Mind map product/service options: - FreeMind freemind.sourceforge.net - XMind www.xmind.net (c) Copyright 2016, Ron Arons 1 Talk Given to SCCHGS - MindJet MindManager www.mindjet.com/mindmanager - MindMeister www.mindmeister.com - iMindQ www.imindq.com - MindGenius www.mindgenius.com - The Brain www.thebrain.com - iMindMap www.thinkbuzan.com/products/imindmap - ConceptDraw www.conceptdraw.com - Popplet www.popplet.com - Coggle www.coggle.it - NovaMind www.novamind.com - Bubbl.us www.bubbl.us - Mind42 www.mind42.com - Connected Mind (Google Chrome extension) chrome.google.com - MindNode www.mindnode.com - Mindomo www.mindomo.com - SimpleMind www.simpleapps.eu/simplemind - Scapple www.literatureandlatte.com/scapple.php - Stormboard www.stormboard.com - LucidChart www.lucidchart.com - MindMup www.mindmup.com - MindMapMaker www.mindmapmaker.org 5.

  • Project Schedule and Cost Management Using Mind Mapping
    Project Schedule and Cost Management Using Mind Mapping Harjit Singh 1 Why Mind Mapping? • Spotlight on the topic at hand • Radiant thinking – Human brain functions in a radiant rather than linear manner – A Mind Map literally ‘maps’ out your thoughts, using associations, connections and triggers to stimulate further ideas organically • Enhances memorization – The Mind Mapping process involves a unique combination of imagery, color and visual- spatial arrangement which is proven to significantly improve recall when compared to conventional methods of note-taking and learning by rote • Creativity through brainstorming – Encourages creativity enables the participants to generate new ideas in brainstorming sessions • Teaching – The visibility of Mind Mapping provides an effective approach for promoting better understanding in students – Example: http://www.biggerplate.com/mindmaps/HnaH WQ5X/business-economics-monetary-and- fiscal-policy Harjit Singh 2 Why Mind Mapping? – Contd. • Presenting – Enables presenters to present with confidence as they can better recall the information when needed • Planning and Organizing – Sandbox of ideas (Can help you plan and organize your thinking before you start writing or get stuck into a project) • Capturing Notes – Most mind mapping programs enable you to attach notes to the branches of your mind map • Group Collaboration – A Mind Map is an excellent tool for collaborating with others to develop plans or implement key projects. It allows you to harness the input of all members of a group in a dynamic and creative way. • Problem Solving – A Mind Map can help you think with greater clarity to explore relationships between ideas and elements of an argument and to generate solutions to problems.
