Interactive Mind Map: A Model for Pedagogical Resource

Abstract

This paper presents an extension of the mind map pedagogical tool, a conception in which the mind map becomes interactive and dynamic. We took advantage of all the mind map's learning potential and benefits, and we add new ones when we propose the interactive mind map tool. We develop a model in which the teacher would have an authoring tool for creating a mind map with its elements, relationships, and interactive content related to each map element. The proposed tool is rich media, as it incorporates different types of media, allowing it to reach students with different learning profiles and needs. Furthermore, the technological aspect brings the school closer to the student's reality.
