What they say:  " Crystal Mapping, like mind mapping, concept mapping and other graphical organisers and brainstorming tools arranges information in a joined up visual context to help improve thinking, learning, understanding and knowledge. Crystal Maps use circles, the universal symbol of unity, rather than nodes and lines to connect ideas. Consequently your maps are more structured and instinctively seen as forming a 'whole that is greater than the sum of its parts'. This helps you plan, communicate and present insights and share and collaborate on projects because people can see 'the bigger picture' context. This new approach is a step on the road to new and better ways of managing projects and information complexity through visual means

Concept maps and web research

For me, web research and concept maps are a good pairing. As I research - I build a map. As I map - I realise new areas that need research.
This papers variously by Arguedas, Cañas, Carnot, Carvalho, Dunn, Eskridge, Gram, Leake, Maguitman, Muldoon and Reichherzer have helped me to understand why, and see other possibilities.

Assessment by concept map

This piece discusses the nature of knowledge, the difficulty in measuring achievement in the three types of domain knowledge, and how concept maps offer one way of judging students' knowledge structure.

Framework for mind mapping

Here is a link to a set of free templates for many types of mind maps. This is good solid stuff, and if you have MindManager, there's no reason not to get it.
But if you don't have MindManager, well, there's still no reason to hold back - go and pick up the MindManager Viewer from MindJet's site. That is also free.


Knowledge mapping for communities

Here's an interesting slideshow in which authors Simon Buckingham Shum and Alexandra Okada make a case for a move away from text towards knowledge or mind mapping presentation in a knowledge community. Their objective is to change cognition, no less.

Visual mapping and recession-proofing your job

It looks like businesses are in for a tough time in 2008 and beyond. If your employer downsizes, how can you take steps to make sure you're one of the survivors?
