Unlock your brain’s potential using mind mapping
Mind mapping is a popular technique that can be applied in a
variety of situations and settings. Students can make sense of
complex topics and structure their revision with mind mapping;
business people can manage projects and collaborate with colleagues
using mind maps, and any creative process can be supported by using
a mind map to explore ideas and build upon them. Mind maps allow
for greater creativity when recording ideas and information
whatever the topic, and enable the note-taker to associate words
with visual representations.

you through the wide range of approaches to mind mapping, looks at
the available mind mapping software options, and investigates
