You were always on my mind...map.


Are you that kind of people who can’t stand their own handwriting? Well, I am. I find it particularly sad to study from my notes sometimes. I’m not always motivated by my own words (or someone else’s words, but written with my pen).

I came across a highly useful tool called “C-Map”. Well, I didn’t find it just by chance. I noticed that it was part of a list of tools in a survey that we had to fill in last year. They asked us if we regularly use those tools. Curiosity led me to find out more about this ‘discovery’.

I downloaded the software and I saw that the program allows you to create, modify, save and export mind maps very easily. I use it now every time I can to make a copy of my notes when I’m preparing a final exam or if I have to summarise a text, a topic or, in this short example, a book and its author’s biography.


I hope you find this useful! AND... I want to take this opportunity to say:

BRAVO LETI! - Our teacher in ECO2, Letizia Russo, took part in a competition that involved showing an ICT project carried out at primary, secondary or tertiary level. She presented the reflective blogs (like the one you are reading at right now) and she won! Now she has the chance of flying to Liverpool to attend the 2013 IATEFL Conference. What's more, her work will be published in partnership with Mcmillan publishers as a handbook and also in digital format.
We are very proud of you!
AND… as I already told you: SAY ‘HI’ TO THE BEATLES FOR ME!
