About the Author

Silvina P. Hillar is an Italian citizen who has been teaching English since 1993. She has always had a great interest in teaching, writing, and composition techniques and has done a lot of research on this subject. She has been exploring mind mapping and using it for more than 10 years in order to embed it into teaching.

She is an English Teacher, a Certified Legal Translator (English/Spanish) and has a Post graduate Degree in Education (graduated with Honors).

She has been working in several schools and institutions with native English speaking students, and as an independent consultant for many international companies in the capacity of an Interpreter, Translator, and Virtual Learning Environment ( VLE ) Course Designer.

She has always had a passion for technological devices concerning education. Formerly, videos and cassettes were a must in her teaching lessons; the computer was, and still is, playing a big role. Her brother, Gastn C. Hillar, designed some programs and games for her teaching. Lately, she has been teaching using Moodle and Web 2.0. She believes that one of the most amazing challenges in education is bridging the gap between classic education and modern technologies.

She has been doing a lot of research on multimedia assets that enhance teaching and learning through VLE platforms. She tries to embed the learning of students through new resources that are appealing and innovative for them. Thus, multimedia stimulates different thinking skills as well as multiple intelligences.

She has authored two more books at Packt Publishing, which are Moodle 1.9: The English Teacher's Cookbook and Moodle 2.0 Multimedia Cookbook.

Acknowledgement

I would like to thank the entire team at Packt Publishing who worked with me as an incredibly helpful unit; especially Robin de Jongh, who trusted me to develop this idea into a book. Vishal Bodwani was very patient and helpful in managing the deadlines.

I would also like to thank all my students, either real or virtual, who made it possible for me to be a teacher.

I owe tremendous thanks to my wonderful 7-year-old son Nico, who despite his age was very patient and supporting in the writing process of this book. In fact, on occasions, he was forced to play alone while I was concentrating on my writing.

I would like to thank my parents, Susana and Jose (who is also a writer), who always stand by me and support my decisions; my brother Gastn C. Hillar who, as usual, helps me whenever I need him; my little 3-year-old nephew Kevin and my sister-in-law Vanesa S. Olsen with whom I spend time working with and exploring Moodle, Web 2.0, and many other resources.

Last but not least, I would like to thank my dearest friends Paola and Ruben, and their beautiful children Mauren and Martino.

About the Reviewer

Nigel Goult is an experienced Visual Information Management Professional who started using mind mapping and other visual information management techniques and software tools in 2001. He has worked for two of the largest and most focused mind mapping software resellers in the UK, one of which he co-owned. He now owns and manages his own company, Olympic Limited (www.olympic-limited.co.uk), which is a visual information management company that specializes in solutions and add-in developments for mind mapping applications such as Mindjet MindManager, among others.

Nigel started developing value-added extensions and add-ins in 2005 when he developed the first PRINCE2 project management solution, which utilized a mind mapping application as a delivery platform. Since then he has conceived, designed, and authored more than 20 add-ins for Mindjet MindManager, and has designed and developed solutions that cover disciplines including document management, quality management, and project management.

Olympic is now in the first stages of designing its first collaborative development project with Mindlogik, the reseller/technical partner of New Zealand-based Mindjet MindManager. The application will initially be produced as a Mindjet MindManager add-in, but will eventually mature into a standalone application to help users create documentation for all kinds of purposes within a visual framework.

Nigel is also recognized as a leader in creating additional value-added software extensions for Mindjet MindManager, and his advice, inputs, and opinions are frequently sought by mind map users around the world. He is also involved with other leaders in the field of mind mapping software and add-in development and regularly contributes to blogs, forums, LinkedIn discussions, and other social media outlets in the field of visual information management.
