Mind Mapping



Mind Mapping is a useful technique that improves the way you take notes, and supports and enhances your creative problem solving. By using Mind Maps, you can quickly identify and understand the structure of a subject, and the way that pieces of information fit together, as well as recording the raw facts contained in normal notes.
Both students and teachers are using the mind maps, for the students it help them in revising for the exams and focusing on the main important ideas, for the teachers it help them in summarizing the materials they have and making the information more organized.
Sometimes if the topic is long and complex the teacher asked the students to draw a mind map that simplify the topic for them and I have used this method, the problem was that some of the students were lazy and want everything to be ready for them, another problem was that I wasn’t well-known about the useful software’s that makes the mind map something easy and interesting, they were using the Microsoft Word and PowerPoint which was taking a long time. This course gave me the needful software’s that I will use them in the future with my students.
