Mind Mapping

Mind mapping is a visual thinking tool that organises ideas, fosters creativity, and enhances memory retention. By linking concepts in a radial structure, it mirrors how the brain naturally processes information. Benefits include:

  1. Boosted Creativity: Encourages brainstorming and idea generation.
  2. Improved Organization: Helps break complex topics into manageable chunks.
  3. Enhanced Memory: Visual and associative connections improve recall.
  4. Streamlined Problem-Solving: Promotes a holistic view of challenges.
  5. Increased Productivity: Simplifies planning and task prioritization.

Start with a Central Idea: Write your main topic or goal in the centre of the page.

Add Main Branches: Draw lines outward for key ideas or categories.

Expand Sub-Branches: Add details, examples, or related concepts to each branch.

Use Visuals: Include colours, icons, or images to make it memorable and engaging.

Review and Organise: Look for connections or gaps to refine your understanding.
