- 2. Mind maps were developed in the late 60s by Tony Buzan as a way of helping students make notes that used only key words and images. They are much quicker to make, and because of their visual quality much easier to remember and review . The non-linear nature of mind maps makes it easy to link and cross-reference different elements of the map. –Peter Russell Mind Mapping is an alternative method of note taking , one which uses an artistic ( stream of consciousness ) approach. A mind map is a diagram used to represent words , ideas , tasks or other items linked to and arranged radially around a central key word or idea. It is used to generate , visualize , structure and classify ideas, and as an aid in study , organization , problem solving , decision making , and writing. - WikiPedia

- 9. Using Mindmapping; applications Weekly plan (including my roles, goals and major "to dos" for the week); meeting minutes; training notes; planning social functions; etc. For idea generation . When you finally get to the “Big Idea”, all of the other components are laid out in front of you, grouped by kind. You can move around the map and pick out the supporting themes, tag lines, product line extensions, etc. Mind mapping capitalizes on the basic idea of brainstorming , which is "piggybacking" one idea onto another.
- 10. How to Make a Mind Map 1. Turn your page on its side (landscape “mode”). 2. Draw your central image -- using at least 3 colors, making it a picture that captures the subject. Use a lot of IMAGES. 3. Add the branches that represent the subject's main topics or themes using key words and images . Use different colors for them. Balance your branches. Draw branches with a curved line. 4. Add detail with more key words and images. Use color throughout, and try to make your Mind Map as beautiful as possible. 5. Print your words clearly, and use only one word per line . 6. Use arrows to connect linked ideas.
