Mind Maps/ Mind Mapping for Teachers, Trainers, & Presenters

This lecture outlines the many ways that mind mapping helps all children (whatever their preferred learning style) with their learning success

How Mind Mapping helps students with their skills development 

Using Mind Mapping to plan lessons, broadcasts or workshops

Using Mind Mapping to assess a student's knowledge and understanding

Mind Mapping as a Personal Development Tool

The role of Mind Mapping in Leading Teams and facilitating helpful group dynamics

This is a mind Map about the Business Uses of Mind Mapping. I show you the Mind Map and then talk you through it. (It was an online for a workshop presented in Dubal and Kuala Lumpur) As an overview Map it doesn't necessarily go into much detail - so if you'd like more information about any of the aspects covered in the Map you can ask questions in the Q&A are send me a personal message.

This bonus lecture is to give you some insights into what qualifies as a mind map and what does not qualify. Using the Udemy player ability to play videos at differing speeds, you can probably watch this at x1.5 normal speed and still understand it.

In this lecture I wanted to show a useful application for those who run workshops. I thought at first I might share a mind map of the Happiness Workshop I used to run at Morley College (if I get enough requests I might still do this!) - in the end I decided to show you a mind map of a workshop I was asked to run when the regular presenter wasn’t available.

This workshop “Day 17” on Creativity and Innovation was part of a Management Development Course at Birmingham University. I was handed a ‘mind map’ of the course structure and asked ‘could I run this’?

Even though the mind map was (in my book) more of a circular list than a mind map it still gave me enough information to run (what was) a one-day workshop (as creativity and innovation was one of my key skills). So in this lecture I talk you through the workshop structure from the ‘mind map'

This lecture will also appear in the bonus section of my Mind Mapping Mastery Course

If you are a teacher or a trainer working with someone (or a group) that don't 'know' mind mapping, then they need help in the first instance to navigate around the mind map and also connect together the keywords in order to reconstruct the authors intended meaning. So a great introduction is to 'read' the mind map whilst they observe the process. The lecture also demonstrates the vast amount of information that a mind map can summarise.

Dr Subra Mukherjee and Barry Mapp chat about their path to Mind Mapping (Part 1 and Part2 of a three Part chat)

In this video (Part3) as well as discussing wellness (and a standup workstation) Barry talks about the importance of white space in Mind Mapping - a principle that helps to separate the ideas

Barry was interviewed recently with topics covered pertinent to both education and business. It's a long interview so it's been edited and broken down into several separate parts. This is Part Two

Notes from the podcast (BizUlearned):

In this episode 14, Cowboy, Mark, and Barry Mapp discuss the concept of ‘Biz Unlearned’, focusing on critical thinking, the importance of understanding unknown unknowns, and the impact of fear on creativity and learning. They explore the necessity of doing nothing in certain situations, the role of education in shaping thought processes, and the need for disruptors in times of crisis, particularly during the pandemic.

The conversation also touches on the assumptions made during the pandemic and the varied responses from different countries. In this conversation, the speakers discuss the multi-faceted challenges faced by business owners, particularly in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

They explore the importance of rethinking assumptions, the role of outsourcing, and the benefits of mind mapping as a tool for organizing thoughts and strategies. The discussion also touches on historical lessons from quality management, particularly the influence of W. Edwards Deming, and emphasizes the need for collaboration over competition in business.

In this TEDx talk Dan Siegel outlines his hand model of the brain but also talks about the important of Brain (neural) integration. You can also maybe start to intuit how MIND MAPPING can help with integrating neural networks
