Forum • Exzerpieren mit Citavi Hallo, Garion - und hallo, Herr Bonekämper, Antonio hat unsere Exzerpt-Variante A skizziert: Statt langem Exzerpt eine Sammlung von direkten und indirekten Zitaten etc. Wir haben Variante A schon öfters empfohlen. Variante A Variante A hat den Vorteil, dass ein Exzerpt in „Einzelteile“ (in wörtliche und indirekte Zitate, auch Kurzzusammenfassungen und eigene Kommentare) quasi zerlegt wird, die sich später auch einzeln in neuen Zusammenhängen (also nicht nur im ursprünglichen Exzerpt-Kontext) verwenden lassen. Aber es gibt neben Variante A natürlich noch andere Möglichkeiten, die vielleicht Ihrer Vorstellung, wie man in Citavi ein Exzerpt gestalten könnte, etwas näher kommen.

It’s called ‘mind mapping’ (“Mind Map” is a trademark of the Buzan Organization .) and it’s basically a fun and intuitive way to visually organize your thoughts. XMind Definitely one of the easiest ways to embed a mind map into your blog or website.
