Description

In this course, you will learn how to use mind maps to learn faster and retain more from what you read. By the end of the course, you will know how to apply active reading to non-fiction books, and then create mind maps to make sense of the author's ideas and capture them so you won't forget what you've learned.

How to skim a book quickly to digest the main points
How to plan your reading so that you will get the most out of your time
How to deconstruct a book quickly so that you can make the information more relevant to your life and goals
How to use spaced repetition to master what you have learned

When you're finished with the course, you will be able to create a mind map for a book that will not only make it easier for you to learn quickly, but also use that knowledge in the future, applying it to get the most out of your investment of time.

Instructor's Courses

Hi! I'm Phil Jones, and I'm a change management consultant from Houston, Texas. I've been working in communication, change, and management consulting for 10 years. I've been practicing writing and speech for much, much longer. I'm passionate about improvement and learning, and that curiosity has made me want to share what I've found with others.

Creating and consuming training is a big part of my career, so I thought I would make it a part of my personal projects, too.

Learning to learn and grow is one of the most important things we can do. Communication and change make using what we've learned possible. I hope I can share some of that with you!
