Are there certain applications where hand-drawn maps are preferable to software-produced ones, and vice versa?

Jamie Nast: Absolutely! The major benefits of hand-drawn over software is the kinesthetic element that engages memory in a greater way. You also have more freedom with the imagery. Others have said that there is a level of enjoyment that comes from the drawing – something they don’t get to express in other aspects of their work. The benefits of the software are also numerous. Editing without redrawing, hyperlinks, attachments, virtual collaboration, and integration with Microsoft products are not possible when drawing by hand. Whether it is hand-drawn or created using software, the bottom line is that the purpose for creating the map will help determine the best method. Chuck Frey: Tell us about your Idea Mapping Kit. What does it include, and what does it enable people to do? Jamie Nast: The Idea Mapping Kit was designed primarily for my workshop participants, but I’ve also made it available to the public. It is half the size of a normal binder that includes a set of 10 Staedtler mark
