A
mind map is a
diagram
used to visually organize information. A mind map is often created
around a single concept, drawn as an image in the center of a blank
landscape page, to which associated representations of ideas such as
images, words and parts of words are added. Major ideas are connected
directly to the central concept, and other ideas branch out from those.
Mind maps can be drawn by hand, either as "rough notes" during a
lecture, meeting or planning session, for example, or as higher quality
pictures when more time is available.
