Mind Mapping
A mind map is a graphic organisational thinking tool that “literally ‘maps out’ your thoughts” (Buzan, 2005).
Mind mapping can help you to:
- Brainstorm ideas or what you already know about a topic.
- Make connections between ideas
- Record notes while you are researching
- Study faster and more effectively
and much much more!
