Mind maps

Mind maps: Success in studies

Mind Maps are a way of displaying information.

They help you remember important points.

They are used to simplify complex topics.

They help your brain to make relationships.

Their visual quality and colour stimulates your memory.

They improve your ability to manage information and the flow of your ideas. This increases concentration and confidence in students.

Interested in creating your own Mind Maps?

Then follow these steps,and be as crative as you want:

1. Prepare an A4 paper and some colours.
2. Place a topic in the center of the page.
3. Brainstorm ideas about it. Use key words and short sentences(Try answering what, why, where, when or how to start)
4. When you generate ideas, draw branches around the main topic.
5. Draw some sub-branches from your main branches to extend your thoughts and create associations between ideas.
6. Draw lines between toughts. Curve lines will stimulate your brain. Use the same colour to associate ideas and different colours to separate them. 
7. Draw or find pictures for each branch or sub-branch. Make each picture significant, funny or exaggerated. Images help us to remamber more easily.
8. If all your ideas appear on the paper: You have created a mind map!
9. You can try sites like this one to create mind maps on line: https://bubbl.us/
