Originated in the late 1960s by Tony Buzan Mind Maps are now used by millions of people around the world – from the very young to the very old – whenever they wish to use their minds more effectively.

A 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`
5
In so doing, it gives you the freedom to roam the infinite expanses of your brain.
The Mind Map can be applied to every aspect of life where improved learning and clearer thinking will enhance human performance

Mind-maps have many advantages over linear notes.
They are much quicker to construct and because of their visual quality are much easier to remember and review. Associations between ideas are not only easily demonstrated, but also stimulate brain creativity.
8
Mind-maps work well because they operate in the same way as the human mind, ie not in straight lines!
The organisation of a mind-map reflects the way the brain organises thoughts.
Thus when ideas are reduced to one or two words the brain must actively think about and process these ideas, in turn aiding memory.
9
Start in the CENTRE of a blank page turned sideways. Why?
Because starting in the centre gives your Brain freedom to spread out in all directions and to express itself more freely and naturally.
10
Use an IMAGE or PICTURE for your central idea. Why?
Because an image is worth a thousand words and helps you use your imagination.
A central image is more interesting, keeps you focussed, helps you concentrate, and gives your Brain more of a buzz
11
Use COLOURS throughout. Why?
Because colours are as exciting to your Brain as are images.
Colour adds extra vibrancy and life to your Mind Map, adds tremendous energy to your Creative Thinking, and is fun!
12
CONNECT your MAIN BRANCHES to the central image and connect your second- and third-level branches to the first and second levels, etc. Why?
Because your Brain works by association. It likes to link two (or three, or four) things together.
If you connect the branches, you will understand and remember a lot more easily
13
Make your branches CURVED rather than straight-lined. Why?
having nothing but straight lines is boring to
your Brain.
14
Use ONE KEY WORD PER LINE. Why
Because single key words give your Mind Map more power and flexibility
15
Use IMAGES throughout. Why
Because each image, like the central image, is also worth a thousand words.
So if you have only 10 images in your Mind Map, it’s already the equal of 10,000 words of notes!
16
Adaptable - they can be used for lectures; note-making from books; essay plans etc. as well as less structured tasks.
Easy to add ideas later, at any time.
17
Help you focus on the links and relationships between ideas so you don't just have disconnected facts.
Can be personalised with pictures and symbols to make things more memorable.
Useful tool for condensing lots of information – eg a whole topic into a mind map poster, to aid revision
