數位心智圖像APP之比較分析初探

A Preliminary Study of Comparative Analysis of Digital Mind Mapping Apps

隨著科技的進步數位工具在教育領域的應用愈加普及，心智圖像作為一種有效的思維輔助工具，已被廣泛應用於學習、記憶、腦力激盪及課程教學中。然而，隨著數位工具的發展，各式數位心智圖像APP的出現使得教師與學生在選擇適合工具時有更多選項。本研究旨在探討數位心智圖像APP的類型與功能。透過文獻探討及以「貝瑞岱比較教育研究法」比較不同數位心智圖像之功能異同，歸納出數位心智圖像APP的類型，包括文書軟體型、行動裝置型及附加繪製型等。而行動裝置型之數位心智圖像APP的功能差異，主要為空間概念、多樣模板選擇、人工智能輔助工具及線上即時分享等多項功能。

With the advancement of technology digital tools have become more and more popular in the field of education, mind mapping, as an effective thinking aid, has been widely used in learning, memory, brainstorming and curriculum teaching. However, with the development of digital tools, the emergence of various digital mind mapping apps has given teachers and students more options in choosing suitable tools. The purpose of this study is to investigate the types and functions of digital mind mapping apps. Through literature review and comparison of the similarities and differences in the functions of different digital mind mapping apps using the“Berrieday Comparative Educational Research Method”, the types of digital mind mapping apps were summarized, including the software type, the mobile device type, and the add-on drawing type. The differences in the functions of mobile device-based digital mind map APPs are mainly the spatial concept, multiple template choices, artificial intelligence assistive tools, and real-time online sharing.
