How to Mind Map for Study Success
Maps:

Mind Map
Mind maps refer to hand-drawn diagrams that represent words, ideas, tasks, or other items linked to and arranged around a central key word or idea.
MindManager Maps
MindManager and other software based maps are interactive diagrams that represent ideas, concepts and data, created by one or more people and/or systems, linked around a central theme.
Mind maps (or similar concepts) have been used for centuries in learning, brainstorming, memory, visual thinking, and problem solving by educators, engineers, psychologists, and others.
