Mind Maps in Classroom Teaching and Learning
Arulselvi, Evangelin
Excellence in Education Journal, v6 n2 p50-65 Sum 2017
Mind Mapping is a learning technique which uses a non-linear approach that encourages the learner to think and explore concepts using visual-spatial relationships flowing from a central theme to peripheral branches which can be inter-related. The new millennium is being called the Millennium of the Mind, and Mind Mapping is becoming widely accepted in schools, industry and government. The great advantage of a Mind Map is that it literally "maps" the way a person's brain sees and creates connections; once mastered, it brings incredible clarity and ease to decision-making process, using all of the ways the brain processes information -- word, image, logic, number, rhythm, colour and spatial awareness, so that the person is literally thinking with his or her whole brain. Because of these benefits, the use of Mind Mapping holds promise as a technique to aid students in learning.
