Now that I’m back in school, one of the things that would be terribly handy would be a flashcard/quiz type application that could extract it’s questions from a mindmap. That way I enter and organize my information, and then can use the appropriate methods to improve retention. This might require that I organize the mindmap in such a way that this relationship could be easily extracted; I need to give more thought to that.

Hi Andreas, my course listing can be seen at https://reagle.org/joseph/2003/08/registering-nyu . Oddly enough, I’m presently most into the Socialization class. One class starts off reading Marx-Engels, and then moves on to a bunch of French philosphers, not something I’m excited about.

This is what I do when I start off a new semester. To help put all this bidness in one hizzhouse (sorry just spent some time at urbanslang.com). Over time each class breaks off like a rhizome and grows into its own mini-ecology. blah blah blah…The links offer overviews or summaries of various works and theories. I also included some links on generating the big BAD THESIS! May it soon be published.
