Tips for Mind Mapping<br />

• Use just key words, or wherever possible, images.<br />

• Start from the center <strong>of</strong> the page and work out, or<br />

from the bottom up if you are using a tree.<br />

• Make the center a clear and strong visual image<br />

that depicts the general theme <strong>of</strong> the map.<br />

• Underline or highlight the things you want to<br />

stand out.<br />

• Leave lots <strong>of</strong> space.<br />

• Create sub-centers for sub-themes.<br />

• Put key words on lines.<br />

• Print rather than write in script.<br />

• Anything that stands out on the page will stand<br />

out in your mind.<br />

• Use arrows, icons or other visual aids to show links<br />

between different elements.<br />

• Don’t get stuck in one area. If you can’t think <strong>of</strong><br />

anything else in an area, move on to another.<br />

• Put ideas down as they occur, wherever they fit.<br />

Don’t judge or hold back.<br />

• Be creative. Creativity aids memory.<br />

• Get involved. Have fun.<br />
