In this episode, we explore how mind mapping assists individuals with dyslexia in organizing their ideas. Dyslexic individuals often have brilliant ideas but struggle to structure them coherently. Mind mapping helps visualize these thoughts, making it easier to organize them into text or presentations. Assistive technology has evolved from basic PC tools to advanced AI-driven solutions, offering limitless possibilities for mind mapping.
Host Matthew Head is joined by Chris Collier, Director of Assistive Technology at OpenGenius. Chris’s journey began as an English teacher in South Africa, where he encountered neurodiverse students and learned about Dyslexia.
