How a revision mind map helps with An Inspector Calls

Priestley's play packs a lot into three acts, so an Inspector Calls revision mind map helps you see how the characters, themes and 1912 and 1945 settings connect before an exam.

Central node for the play's main message about social responsibility
Branches for each family member and Inspector Goole
Sub-points for quotes, context and dramatic irony
Editable so you can update the map after class

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain-text notes or a photo of your pages.

Generate the mind map

DeckOwl reads the text and arranges it into a central idea with main branches and sub-points.

Edit and revise

Adjust the branches, then explore the map to test how the Birling family, Gerald Croft and Eva Smith connect.

Generate one from your own notes or a scanned chapter summary instead of a generic map. Start with the topic you find hardest, such as Eric and Gerald's responsibility for Eva Smith, and add a branch for each piece of evidence you want to recall.

Keep the map short enough to redraw from memory. Once the structure is clear, use the same material for flashcards or a quiz on quotes and context.
