#165: Mind Mapping for Executive Function: Capture, Focus, Adapt with Liam Hughes
Description
In this episode of the Dyslexia Explored Podcast, host Darius Namdaran is joined by Liam Hughes of Biggerplate to discuss mind mapping as a powerful tool for individuals with dyslexia. Liam shares his personal story of discovering mind mapping software in university, which helped him overcome his struggles as a slow reader and pass critical exams. They explore the history of mind mapping, the differences between hand-drawn and digital versions, and how it functions as a "thinking tool" to organize complex information rather than just a note-taking method. The conversation also covers how mind mapping aligns with learning science principles like dual coding and schemas and supports executive functions that can be challenging for those with dyslexia. Join this insightful discussion to learn about the practical applications of mind mapping and its future with AI integration.
