Colorado Law is Pilot Site for Cutting Edge MindManager Software

October 9, 2009

Colorado Law School is proud to announce that it is a pilot site for MindJet’s MindManager advanced mind mapping software. Piloting the software places the law school on the cutting edge of both technology and legal education. Every student, faculty, and staff member has been given a free copy of MindManager, a significant gift of $179 per license.

MindJet designed MindManager to boost productivity, effectiveness, and efficiency by helping the user to create mind maps―a graphical diagram showing the relationships between thoughts by visually connecting ideas and information. Using the software, law students can move beyond an everyday outline by arranging and connecting information from class into a multi-dimensional space. MindManager can also be used by staff to help with day to day activities, organizing projects, and keeping track of emails and documents and by faculty as a teaching tool.

Professor Paul Ohm has used the MindManager software as a visual learning tool during his lectures for several years, and he and Professor Derek Kiernan-Johnson were instrumental in attracting MindJet to use Colorado Law as a pilot site.

The software is used by 1.5 million professionals in all types of industries including consulting, education, finance, government, healthcare, and telecommunications. Colorado Law joins major corporations and institutions like CocaCola, NBC, Hewlett-Packard, Oxford University and the Federal Aviation Administration in using the software.
