“Every teacher, speaker and educator should use NovaMind”, says internationally acclaimed public speaking trainer

By anybody’s definition, Dr Joanna Martin would have to be defined as amazing.

In her first year teaching and selling from the stage, she made $1.25 million, and became an internationally recognized speaker in UK, USA and Australia. In just under three years, she sold over $3.8 million worth of products, and consulted with businesses, making over $47 million in the process…all before her 30th birthday!

She has recently started using NovaMind, and now uses it every day for preparing her presentations. Here is what she has to say about it:

Joanna Martin
“Just wanted to let you know I bought your mindmap software the other day and am head over heels in love with it!

I am using it daily to plan content for teleseminars and trainings. And in the past where I wouldn’t even consider planning a workshop without postit notes, and a lot of wall space to stick them on (!), I can now happily plan with all my usual creativity, but on my baby laptop in the cafe, at 38,000ft, or in the office.

I love how it’s so easy to rearrange your thoughts once you’ve brain-dumped it all out!

Love it love it love it. I only wish I had got onto using NovaMind sooner. It’s awesome and I think every teacher, speaker and educator should use it.”

NovaMind Partners with Memory4Teachers to Provide Teaching Resources and Tools

NovaMind, producer of Mind Mapping for both education and business use, today announced that they have joined the Memory4Teachers initiative which will provide teachers with a range of educational resources and software applications, as well as data storage on 2GB USB keys which will be given away free to 750,000 teachers across the UK.

“NovaMind have been involved in education for the last 7 years, and being able to help out so many teachers with NovaMind Mind Mapping software is like a dream come true for us”, said Gideon King, founder of NovaMind, and internationally recognized expert on Mind Mapping. Gideon King is also the author of the seminal work on the use of Mind Mapping in education, “Teacher’s guide to Mind Mapping”, and says “The effectiveness of Mind Mapping in education has been repeatedly proven, both in the effective presentation of information, memorization, study and research. Specific techniques can be used to engage visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning simultaneously, leading to much improved comprehension and retention of the information.”

NovaMind has a number of unique features which make it ideal for education, like the ease of creating visually stunning Mind Maps, rainbow coloring, flexible branches, and an all time favourite with the students; the Suggesterator, which suggests new directions for thinking based on the existing content of the Mind Map. It also has the ability to print out Mind Maps without the text on the branches so that students can fill it in with their own keywords for better memorization of the material, and again when revising, starting with the blank Mind Map structure gives visual and spacial cues which have been proven to significantly improve the recall of the actual content.

NovaMind is dedicated to providing the best of Mind Mapping software and educational resources for teachers across the UK through the Memory4Teachers system, and will also be making educational videos available to the teachers and students to further enhance their effectiveness through the use of Mind Mapping and related thinking techniques and tools.

Since 1998, RGS Media Group has been working with the public, voluntary and private business sectors providing creative and cost efficient media solutions specifically within the UK education sector. The Memory4Teachers memory sticks are an extension of this dedication to the education industry, showing yet another initiative which will help teachers significantly through the free storage space, integrated software and resources.

The memory sticks are password secure and are preloaded with a fully interactive control panel, a diary, timetable and lesson plans as well as offering support for all national curriculum subject areas. The memory sticks also provide teachers with direct access to recommended educational websites.

"Totally Great 2"

I too am developing a film project and have completely fallen in love with NovaMind. It has been a tremendous tool for creating both the film's treatment and Keynote presentation. I was excited to see the Screenwriting Module added with version 2.x. Though I've used Final Draft for years, ever since OS X arrived I've been yearning for someone to write a native/cocoa application for screenwriting and to have it utilize the Services feature of OS X. From my perspective, having the screenwriting integrated with a mind mapping application will just be fantastic! In its initial version the Screenwriting Module has got the basics, and I'm hopeful that it will mature into a Final Draft competitor.

"An excellent product that became my assistant"

About 6 months ago I tried few mind mapping products. None was as intuitive, easy to use and feature rich. It has since improved. Now I use it for every project I have, from the strategic level, to building competitive analysis, building web sites, starting business plans etc.

The company is very easy to work with. Extremely responsive. The flexibility with different languagues is very helpful. This is the way every software vendor whould be. Highly recommended for everybody who does not do a routine, competitive job but needs to put the brain to work.
