L'ensemble est très sympathique et apporte une organisation originale dans laquelle de nombreu éléments puvent être ajoutés (quiz, documents etc). Malheureusemen, gratuitement il n'est possible de réaliser qu'un cours et le stockage est limité à 100 Mo

Effective graphic facilitation offers an important lesson for mind mappers - Mind Mapping Software Blog

Effective graphic facilitation offers an important lesson for mind mappers - Mind Mapping Software Blog | Serious Play | Scoop.it

Unlike graphical facilitation, where you’re recording a group’s output and making meaning in real time, in many cases you’re creating a mind map in isolation and then sharing it with others with whom you may not be face to face. That means they don’t have the context that you did at the time you created the map.

In other words, YOU know what you meant when you structured your mind map and its contents the way you did, but they may not understand what you’re trying to communicate. That means it’s very important that you review your mind maps before you share them from the point of view of their intended audience. Ask yourself: “What if I was them? Would I ‘get’ this?” If the answer is “no,” then you have more work to do!

Follow this guide to coaching kids or people who "think in pictures" how to create picture-based notes and outlines. Kid brains remember better by starting with the picture for a story. . ***Read the text while they create pictures to tell it. 
***They re-tell using their pictures. 
***Analyze the accuracy to improve the image words of the story (if possible) or the power of the images. 
Next time *** Divide the paper into number of topics 
*** Picture for each topic 
*** Re-tell & connect the pictures to create a branch from topic to topic 
*** Add smaller sub branches with new pictures if needed 
*** Re-tell 
Advanced*** Recreate the pictures from memory
