Mnemonics
SODA: http://apotential.wordpress.com/medical-mnemonics/Medical Mnemonics: http://www.medicalmnemonics.com/
Mnemonics are learning memory techniques that help learners recall larger pieces of information, especially in the form of lists like characteristics, steps, stages, parts, phases, etc.

Mind Maps
Mind Map Guidelines: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_map Mind Maps in Medicine: http://www.mindmaptutor.com/2011/04/mind-maps-in-medicine/
Mind maps help learners comprehend, see the big picture, create new ideas, and build connections.
