Summary about Mindmapping

In the past 2 months, I have posted some blogs about mindmapping and discussed with you. Thanks for your comments. Most of you have realized the value of mindmapping and made the most of it in your life and study.
Because of the limitation of my time and ability, the research on mindmapping is not perfect. If you still have some questions about it, there are some references for you to learn deeper.

This article is the most comprehensive I have seen so far. It concludes the following parts:
  • What is Mind Mapping?
  • Getting Started with Mind Mapping
  • Types of Mind Maps
  • Common Uses of Mind Maps
  • Mind Mapping Tools and Applications
  • Mind Mapping Resources

  2. Jialu,

    Thank you for a very informative Blog series. Often it seemed there were too many great blogs and not enough time to read them. As a first time blogger, I would say that this experience opened my eyes to new and creative collaborative genre specific communication conduits. The different visual and grammatical styling of each blog sight help me to refine the graphic aesthetics of my KB.

    Thank you again for taking such a difficult subject area and making it interesting and informative.

    1. Hi Matt,

      Thanks for your comment. In fact, I also felt this assignment was difficult at first, but then I gradually find its fun. It is a great opportunity for me to make my own blog and share my ideas with you. I have a sense of accomplishment after every post.

  3. Jialu,

    I had never considered this as a way to memorize information or just to improve the cognitive side of my memory.
    Thanks for your post, I will research this as I get more time in the near future.

  4. Jialu,

    I really enjoyed the video about mindmapping and how it can enhance our cognitive abilities to remember things. I, like Billy- am a big fan of mindmapping and I use it for almost everything. For example when writing- I can't conduct an outline first then lay out what i'm going to write- I jot down a ton of ideas, then connect them. My outline usually comes last. I know, I know- weird, but that's how my mind works. Thank you for going more in-depth on mindmapping...my son likes your blog by the way.

  6. Jialu,
    Great post, I really liked the article you referenced. One thing that stood out to me was using mind mapping for notes. I had never really thought of that but seems like a great way to put notes together in a way that makes sense to the individual. I am definitely going to try in the next time I get a chance. Thanks

    Great work!Thank you for sharing the external source in the post. The video give me a broad picture on mind mapping. Like this week discussion, I just learned that concept mapping can be used in the learning assessment. I think there are a lot potential functions of mind mapping that we can discover.
