Mindmanager for academic work and project management – by Robert O'Toole
Mindmanager is a sophisticated but easy to use tool for enhancing knowledge creation and management activities. Use it for rapidly capturing information and ideas, organising them, testing out ways of structuring and presenting the information, and to turn information into plans for action and for managing the resulting projects. Mindmanager now comes with a cloud-based collaboration service called Mindjet Connect, so that these knowledge and project management processes can easily be undertaken asynchronously by a distributed team.
This video gives a brief overview of how I use Mindmanager in my work as an Academic Technologist and in my research as a PhD student.
