Week 5(Mind Map)


Mind Map:


A mind map is a diagram used to represent words, ideas, tasks, or other items linked to and arranged around a important key word or idea. Mind maps are used to  visualize, structure, and classify ideas, and as an aid to studying and organizing information, solving problems, making decisions, and writing.





Did you ever play the game of word association? Where someone will say a word and you have to say the first thing that comes into your head? This is how a mind map works. You start with a subject in the center and then add branches around it with words or categories on each one. So you could start with Plants in the center and add branches for each broad type of plant. Then another branch (or more) can come from each broad type. It is recommended to use color and pictures on your maps to help.

. Logical Mind Map

     . Associated Mind Map


What is Logical Mind Map?

The Logical Mind Map is directly connected to stereotypes. This means that every word or image that is put within the mind map is directly related to the central subject through its links.
you to remember where each term is positioned on the page. Our brains remember pictures and colors better than words.

What is Associated Mind Map?


Using an associated mind map we are able to generate random words and also show the links between words that seemingly have no connection.
