    Mind Mapping

    A practical guide
    Aims
    • To find out how your brain likes to learn
    • To see how mind maps compare to normal
    written notes
    • To make your first mind map
    • To show how you can use mind maps
    How Mind Maps Are Different To
    Traditional Note Taking
    Linear Vs Organic
    • Traditional note taking is done in what we call a
    LINEAR fashion, that is, in lines – just like these
    sentences!

    • All languages are written in lines. Most, like


    ours, are in lines from left to right.
    Linear V Organic
    • Other languages are written in straight lines
    from right to left
    Linear V Organic
    • Some are even in vertical lines read from top to
    bottom…
    Linear V Organic
    • The troubles is, that the brain does not work in
    straight lines
    • The brain works as a series of links,
    connections and associations
    • When you only work in straight lines you not
    only fail to make the most of your potential, you
    only use half of your brain.
    Linear V Organic
    • Mind maps are mental maps, set up exactly as
    your brain is set up, using links, pictures, colour
    and associations
