A visual brainstorming tool that organizes ideas around a central concept, enhancing creativity and clarity in design thinking.
Mind mapping is a diagrammatic method for representing ideas, tasks, or concepts linked around a central theme, using branches to illustrate relationships and hierarchies.
Employ mind mapping during the ideation phase to explore and structure complex ideas, or when organizing research findings to identify patterns and insights.
It enhances understanding by visualizing connections between ideas, aids memory retention, and fosters creative problem-solving by encouraging free-form thinking.
Start with a central concept, draw branches for related ideas, and add sub-branches for details. Use colors, images, and keywords to enrich the map and highlight connections.
Avoid overcomplicating the map with excessive details or rigid structures; keep it flexible to encourage creativity and clarity.
