1 First of all, let's prepare pen paper (it's better to use larger 4A paper, and it's better not to use small cards, so it's easy to write enough, and don't tear a piece of paper casually, which looks unsightly. Write the "core theme" in the center of the paper, draw a circle, a square one, or draw a pattern with colored strokes, whatever.
2. Express your central idea with an image or picture, and then extend several main "classification themes" from the "core theme".
3. Add nodes: In the mind map, each node represents a concept or information. Use shapes such as rectangles or circles to represent nodes, and add titles or short descriptions to the nodes. Make sure the title is concise and easy to understand.
4. Conciseness: No matter the content of the central theme or the branch theme is combed, the key information of the combed content will be extracted when combing, making the chart intuitive, concise and clear.
Application field:
1. Mind mapping is an effective and efficient way of thinking. When applied to the thinking "map" of memory, learning and thinking, it is beneficial to the diffuse thinking of the human brain.
2. Mind mapping has been widely used all over the world. Singapore's Ministry of Education has listed mind mapping as a compulsory subject in primary schools, and a large number of top 500 enterprises are also learning mind mapping. China has been using mind mapping for many years.
3. Since 1980s, mind mapping has been introduced into Chinese mainland. Initially, it was used to help "students with learning difficulties" overcome learning obstacles, and later it was mainly used by the industrial and commercial circles (especially in the field of enterprise training) to improve the learning efficiency and innovative thinking ability of individuals and organizations.
4. In subject teaching, after 52 years of development, it has not been widely used in schools. After five years of research and practice by thinking visualization Research Team/KLOC-0 led by Liu Zhuoyuan of East China Normal University.
5. The conclusion is that "mind map" is not suitable for direct application in subject teaching, because it puts too much emphasis on "image memory" and "free divergent association" instead of "understanding memory" and "structured thinking".
