Introduction: Ian Hall

I have used iMindMap versions over 10 years. I was teaching in WA until 1997. Since then doing casual relief teaching in Victorian schools. I still do iMindMap on A3 paper. I undertook many sessions with students on mindmapping e.g.: info on Ned Kelly or planning events for schools

I like using imindmapping personally for creating info on session presenting, interview preparation, update curriculum vitae and planning dreams/goals for 2014. I can save mind map as screen, PDF and many other ways. I have also starting using Thinglink for placing the mind map as screen saver and adding links to You Tubes, info and ebooks.

Chap 1: What is imindmapping? Swiss Army Knife Our brains are divided into the left and right cortex. The left side is dedicated to tasks involving order, logic, words, lists, numbers and analysis, the right side deals with rhythm, colour, imagination and daydreaming. If we want to improve memory, learning and thinking skills we have to use our whole brain. (Ref 1)

“MindMapping, according to the real Buzan, is about image and association. It’s a meta-language that geniuses across history (think Leonardo) have tapped into by connecting thoughts with images. A typical MindMap has a central theme, and radiating from it, a series of connected words and images. For Buzan and many users of mindmapping, it’s a way to take notes and connect ideas that fits more perfectly with the brain’s way of doing things than a typical list or piece of prose.” (Ref 2) iMINDMAP is the name created by Tony Buzan’s. Mind Map is a powerful graphic technique which provides a universal key to unlock the potential of the brain. It harnesses the full range of cortical skills - word, image, number, logic, rhythm, colour and spatial awareness - in a single, uniquely powerful manner. In so doing, it gives you the freedom to roam the infinite expanses of your brain.

Laws of Mind Mapping

According to the Wiki. A mind map is a diagram used to visually outline information. A mind map is often created around a single word or text, placed in the centre, to which associated ideas, words and concepts are added. Major categories radiate from a central node, and lesser categories are sub-branches of larger branches. The idea of visually representing thought for problem solving and organization goes back centuries. (Ref 3) Similar to a road map, a Mind Map will:

Give you an overview of a large subject/area.

Enable you to plan routes/make choices and let you know where you are going and where you have been.

Gather and hold large amounts of data.

Encourage problem solving by seeing new creative pathways.

Enable you to be extremely efficient.

Be enjoyable to look at, read, muse over and remember.

Attract and hold the eye/brain.

Improve and accelerate your learning and thinking skills.
