Mind Mapping
Lesson 1 of 9: Mapping the Big Picture

What is a Mind Map?
Mind mapping is a brainstorming technique that organizes information around a central topic or theme. It helps you to visually develop and organize ideas and information.
Why Mind Map?
Mind Maps were popularized by author and consultant, Tony Buzan. They use a two-dimensional structure, instead of the list format conventionally used to take notes. This makes information easier to remember, as it is held in a format that our minds find easy to recall and quick to review.
Mind maps can help you to:
- Grasp a big picture overview of the subject under study.
- Improves capacity to explore detailed snippets of information.
- Provide more clarity about goals, ideas, and actions.
- Improve memory, retention, and comprehension of information.
