7. MIND MAPPING  Mind Mapping, first developed by Tony Buzan, is a creative brainstorming technique that uses both sides of the brain – the rational/logical, as well as our creative/innovative/intuitive side.  The same basic rules that apply to brainstorming also apply to Mind Mapping: –No evaluation or judgment of ideas –Strive for quantity – the more ideas the better! –Even wild ideas are encouraged – you never know where those wild ideas may lead! –Build on the ideas of others Mind Mapping is non-linear and rather than developing lists of ideas it clusters issues/topics/ideas together

8. MIND MAPPING  Elements of the mind mapping process include:  An image, word or words that represent the central focus or problem, is placed in the center of the page.  Ideas and thoughts are allowed to flow without evaluation or judgment  Key words or symbols are used to represent ideas  Similar key words/symbols/ideas are clustered together and connected to the central idea with lines.  Color is used for emphasis.  Images, and symbols are often used to stimulate the mind to make additional connections and to highlight ideas/thoughts.
