Product Description

John West-Burnham
MapWise is based on a sophisticated model of cognition, which is firmly rooted in neurological science. Scientific principles are translated into a practical and relevant resource which is directly transferable into classroom practice and individual work habits I The text is lively and engaging, illustrations are clear and helpful and the tone of the book is practical and supportive.

Product Description
Wise up, and get informed access to the most powerful accelerated learning technique around - Model Mapping. Whatever your current concerns may be - raising boys' achievement, NC tests or GCSE results - behind them lies a fundamental need to improve thinking skills through teacher explanation and student understanding. MapWise, which is based on the 'MapWise' course run by the authors, will help you to meet this need through Model Mapping. Model Mapping offers the most effective means of addressing National Curriculum thinking skills requirements by infusing thinking into subject teaching - it is the key to increasing your school's capacity for learning. In MapWise you will find out how Model Mapping: infuses thinking skills into subject delivery; supports each stage of the accelerated learning process; can be used to measure and develop intelligence; supports students of any preferred learning style in developing essential learning skills; supports teacher explanation and student understanding; makes planning, teaching and reviewing easier and more effective.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book on mind / concept / model mapping ever, 1 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This is the ultimate guide to what Buzan calls mind mapping and the Harris and Caviglioli call Model Mapping. It totally demystifies map making. After years of trying I now have total confidence in how to do it myself, how to teach it to my pupils and how to use it as part of my classroom practice.In particular I now know that all my students are developing their thinking skills in my lessons. The Mapwise chapters chart the history of maps; how to go about making a map, how to teach mapping; thinking skills and mapping; improving communication between teachers and learners and MapWise classrooms in action. This is honestly a GREAT resource for teachers and I believe it is the ultimate guide to one of the most powerful accelerated learning techniques around. Any teacher seriously interested in raising levels of motivation, pupil interest and participation (as well as results!)should get one. Oh yes I forgot to mention that... I got special mention in my appraisal for the quality and diversity of my planning because of it...This is in spite of the fact that I spend 60% less time marking and planning than I used to!

5.0 out of 5 stars A breakthrough in mind mapping!, 4 Oct 2000
By A Customer
This is a well argued and thorough examination of the applications of mapping techniques for educators. It goes beyond the well worn Buzan material and freshens up thinking about visual literacy and about independence of thinking. The arguements about language triangles are particularly useful. I took some of the exercises and used them with my class the next day.

5.0 out of 5 stars a book which looks as good as it reads, 27 Sep 2000
By A Customer
This book is a fascinating insight into mind mapping - how it works, how it can be used to develop thinking and how it can go beyond the Buzan method. It is really strong on practical applications for learning and it is organised in such a way to make it easy to map your way through
