Description: A Software program that helps you think and learn

visually Inspiration allows you to create a picture of
your ideas or concepts in the form of a diagram. It
also provides an integrated outlining environment to
help you develop your ideas into organized written
documents. Inspiration’s combination of visual and
linear thinking deepens under-standing of concepts,
increases memory retention, develops organizational
skills and taps creativity.
When you work with visual representation of ideas,

you easily see how one idea relates to the others.
Learning and thinking become active than passive.
You discover where your deepest knowledge lies, and
where the gaps in your understanding are. When you
create a visual map of ideas, you can recall the details
better than if you had read a paragraph. That’s
because you can see it in your mind.
If you have an idea that you want to expand, whether

it’s an idea for a written document or to map out a
plan, Inspiration can help you organize your thoughts
and save you time. use the visual diagramming part
of the program to work with your ideas to arrange
them and group them—in other words, to clarify your
thinking.
When you need a different kind of structure, you can

use the outlining part of the program to organize your
ideas in outline form. Inspiration’s outlining
environment is perfect for creating structure for
written documents, speeches and plans.
