= Mind Mapping Application: Freemind =
The Westminster Computer Lab has a mind-mapping application called Freemind. You can use this application to create, print or publish your mind map on the Internet. To launch the Freemind application, you make the following menu selections: APPLICATIONS → OFFICE → Freemind
Once the freemind application has been launched, open a new mind map by making the following menu selections: FILE → NEW
The process of making mind maps in the freemind application is simple. Press the INSERT key to create a new node (or branch) from an existing location. Use arrow keys or click to change the focus of a node or to the root location. Icons can be added or removed from nodes (see menu items)
To move locations of the node or branch, press CTRL UPARROW or CTRL DOWNARROW keys. If you continue to press these keys, the node will move to the other side of the root node.
You can book an appointment with AVIT members to generate a mind-map, or you can create a Mind Map in the Westminster Computer Lab using the '''Freemind Mind Mapping''' application.
