There are many ways to come to a solution to a problem. But sometimes linear thinking can block the way to the solution. The best technique to use in this case is a process called mind mapping. With mind mapping you put down the central problem and then use a process of brainstorming or free thinking to come up with different ideas to help this problem come to a resolution. In the past this process was entirely done on paper but new software programs such as Think Like a Genius version 2.0 allows you to use your computer to brainstorm and mind map.
Think Like a Genius version 2.0 is produced by the Psi-Phi Technology Corporation. It is software specifically designed to enhance a person’s creative abilities. The idea behind the software is to create visual diagrams that will allow thoughts to be placed in. After reviewing all of the random thoughts often the true solutions begin to emerge. This version offers plenty of features to keep students occupied and their brains working for quite a while.
But that is where the problem begins to occur. Think Like a Genius is marketed more towards students than it is professionals that need true mind mapping software. Even the product description leads you to think that it is geared more towards classroom projects than a professional project. That is fine because it is so reasonably priced that any classroom would be truly enhanced by its use. Students can use it on a wide variety of projects and the easy to understand graphics make it good for any school age child. It’s primary goal is to increase critical thinking skills and it does this through fun games and charts. Plus it is great for students that want to create incredible presentations.
To be frank and honest, Think Like a Genius version 2.0 is not for professionals. It is a program geared towards the classroom and teaching students how the mind mapping process works. If you want to buy it for your child then it is the right program for them. Since it is so easy to use, you and your child can benefit from the program immensely. The reviews for the product are very positive and it is a learning tool that educators truly value.
