Mind mapping and other visualization tools

June 16th, 2010 at 18:29

This project, like so many projects, would benefit from employing some robust, data-driven, dynamic visualization tools to help us better map out competencies, illustrate relationships among concepts, and share insights. This is always a struggle. If you know of any good tools for taking networked information (like in a relational database) and rendering it easily into a concept map or network diagram, let us know.

As an example, I generated a quick diagram of the content and pedagogy curricular categories using the Text 2 Mind Map application, pasted below. It’s really simple and cool, but it can’t actually diagram networked relationships, only hierarchical ones. Oh well.
