MindManager & UCLA Law

Jerry Kang on how he uses MindManager for law school lectures:

Kang has never liked PowerPoint, the de facto standard for teaching classes at many professional schools. “It brings a C teacher up to B, but never gets beyond that,” he says. “If you can't capture the interactivity of the classroom you are encouraging a passive form of teaching. MindManager, on the other hand, has allowed me to integrate student responses and ideas right onto the screen– and at the same time manage the big picture and the small details.”

At the end of the class, he outputs the map as HTML and posts it on his class Web site for students to review.

"Being able to reorganize ideas in real time enables my students to reach a deeper level of analysis more quickly.”

MindManager is currently 15% off with a free updgrade to 6.0 when it is released in September.  Recommended.
