INSPIRATION THE ULTIMATE THINKING AND LEARNING TOOL
WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH INSPIRATION • BRAINSTORM IDEAS • STRUCTURING THOUGHTS • VISUALLY COMMUNICATING CONCEPTS • TAKE NOTES • ORGANIZE EFFICIENTLY • TRANSFORM ANY/ALL OF THE ABOVE INTO POLISHED PRESENTATIONS
FOUR ENVIRONMENTS • 1. DIAGRAM VIEW • 2. MAP VIEW • 3. OUTLINE VIEW • 4. PRESENTATION MANAGER
MAP VIEW- CREATE MIND MAPS – DEVELOP THINKIING AROUND A CENTRAL IDEA
PRESENTATION MANAGER • CREATE POLISHED PRESENTATIONS FROM ALL/ANY OF THE ABOVE AT THE CLICK OF A BUTTON
TYPES OF GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS • CONCEPT MAP • IDEA MAP • MIND MAP • WEB • STORYBOARD
GRAPHIC ORGANIZERS • IB IAS • TOK • CAS • CAREER PLANNING • FIELD TRIPS AND PROJECTS • COMPARING LITERARY NOVELS • CAUSE AND EFFECT RELATIONSHIPS • DEVELOPING UNDERSTANDING AROUND COMPLEX CONCEPTS
CONCEPT MAPS • HIERARCHIAL DIAGRAM • BEGINS WITH THE MOST GENERAL AND WORKS DOWN TO THE MORE SPECIFIC • CONNECTS KEY CONCEPTS WITH LINKS AND DESCRIPTIVE WORDS • EXPLAINS RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN CONCEPTS • EG: TO ILLUSTRATE SCIENTIFIC OR HISTORICAL CONCEPTS
IDEA MAP • BRAINSTORMING IDEAS • PLANNING • PROBLEM SOLVING • CREATIVE WRITING • LET IDEAS FLOW FREELY, MAP THEM AND THEN STEP BACK AND IDENTIFY COMMON THEMES/PATTERNS EMERGING THEREIN
MIND MAP • SIMILAR TO IDEA MAPS, BUT MORE HIERARCHIAL IN THE SENSE THAT A CENTRAL IDEA IS DEVELOPED INTO RELATED AND SUPPORTING IDEAS • EXCELLENT TOOL FOR RECALLING AND RECAPTULATION
WEB • VISUAL MAP • MORE USEFUL FOR ANALYSING A STORY OR PLAN • SUPPORTED WITH VISUAL IMAGES FOR CLARITY AND DESCRIPTION
STORYBOARD • PLANNING GROUP PRESENTATIONS • EXPLAINING STRUCTURE OF THOUGHTS AROUND PRESENTATIONS • A GOOD AREA OF APPLICATION WOULD BE TO CREATE A STORYBOARD BEFORE BEGINNING INDIVIDUAL INVESTIGATION PROJECTS
