Mind Mapping, Study Skills, Early Intervention, Poor Students, Philippines

Hello, I'm pleased to be doing my bit to promote mental fitness and literacy.
I'm currently volunteering in the Philippines and I've just started informally working with some young people and teachers, teaching them mind mapping and goal mapping. As you can imagine I've noticed that both these tools seem to have a strong 'pull' effect and I'm interested to explore and document how these tools can encourage young people in poorer nations to want to learn, stay or go back to school. With low literacy rates and the opportunity to enhance learning through many of these techniques we may be able to make a real difference.
