Well - it's been a long time between drinks! However this morning I was reading Mercola.com and was reminded by one of his articles that I promised a post on mind maps. What do you Know? It's all been done for me!
So here is the link to the article: Use the web to match your mind
and to the site where the item came from: Lifehack.org
There is a good Wikipedia entry (it's good for some things!) on mind mapping: Mind map
There is free software for mapping on computers, and books by Tony Buzan and Ingemar Svantesson in our library (look on the shelf at LB 1049) which you might find useful.
Remember that mind maps don't have to be major works of art and full of colour and pictures - mine are usually monochrome words and lines with many connecting arrows - if they reflect your learning style and help you organise your thoughts, they will be doing the job right for you.
I would be interested to know what your experiences (good and bad) have been with mind maps. Add a comment sometime.
