Creating a mind-mapStart with a central idea.Draw at least 4 branches radiating outwards from
the central image. Write “key topic” words along these branches.Draw additional branches that extend from your
main branches. The words on these branches are essentially sub-topics of the words you wrote on your main branches.
Keep expanding the Mind Map outwards with additional sub sub-topics / key words and branches.
Interlink the branches/nodes with each other whenever an association exists.

Mind-maps: Industry view Virtually all Fortune 500 companies use Mind Mapping*, including:
“…advanced software can help us slice and dice information in ways that were impossible only a decade ago. But while we’ve gone a long way towards optimizing how we use information, we haven’t yet done the same for knowledge…OneNote and a new generation of ‘mind-mapping’ software can be used as a digital ‘blank slate’ to help connect and synthesize ideas and data— and ultimately create new knowledge.” – Bill Gates, Newsweek, (2009)
