Visualization and Running

Visualization is an important part of being young. Admit it. Kids like bright blinking lights. It also means they can learn to understand visually.

For example, here is the the word Running from Visual Thesarus. I've never seen a better way to understand a word than this visual mind map.



And then there's my visual of Student Debt. I used IBM's ManyEyes which is free to subscribers.

See how the cost of being a doctor or lawyer will put you at $100,000 in debt. That is information you can act on. Information you can plan for.

Just be careful and openminded with any visual information and how you understand it.
