A KAWA on the topic of learning guides
A well-thought-out learning guide is key to effective and sustainable learning! Our KAWA "Learning Guide" is a visual tool that helps you grasp all important aspects of learning guides at a glance. Learning becomes not only more efficient but also more creative and motivating.
Now also available as a package in color, with a black and white template and a blank template for self-design.
What does KAWA actually mean?
KAWA, according to Vera F. Birkenbihl, is an acronym and stands for: Kreative Ausbeute von Wort-Assoziationen (Creative Exploitation of Word Associations). But KAWA is easier to remember. KAWAs can be made on any topic that interests you.
How about your own KAWA and why does this technique work?
First, you write the topic in large letters in the middle. By the way, I always use the paper horizontally and draw the letters in such a way that they can be colored later. In our Mind Map Template Ring Block, KAWAs are drawn on the left white page. Now you let your thoughts wander and consider what comes to mind about the term and what would be important enough to write down. The rule of the game is: what is written down must begin with one of the letters in the middle. The smaller the term, the fewer letters you have available, and the more you have to think. The lack of letters forces you to think about a topic more intensively. By the way, it is not mandatory to use every letter. And: there is no right or wrong in KAWA. For example: Suppose you want to create a KAWA about your best friend Eva, then you only have three letters available. But you can use them multiple times. Perhaps E stands for elegant, successful, eloquent, for V you find her trustworthy, crazy and in love, and for A you have associated goofy and single. If your best friend had been named Hannelore, you would have had more letters available, of course.
KAWA becomes KAGA
If you also clothe the whole thing in many pictures, your KAWA becomes a KAGA, and the G then stands for Graphic Design. I often write in KAWA form in meetings. It keeps me awake, no matter how unimportant or boring a meeting is. And I catch everything. Here's an example on the topic: Have fun, Jens Voigt
