Mind Mapping   By Neia Rodrigues 

 Challenge 

 I used this tool to understand the learning process of my students , 

 during the history sessions . It is very common that students consider History   as a difficult , boring subject , and completely unecessary , given the fact   that you can find all sorts of information available on the internet . But the   challenge here is to anayze what you do with that information and how   you use it for the future and to understand the present . Now , the diffciult   part is to understand how teenagers think and or understand better a   topic . Mind Mapping strategy is quite accurate to visualize the process   students go through when think . Moreover , this strategy is great for   keeping track of the small moments of the class that   are missing empathy   with students ; in this way I can   improve the activities inthe   class to make   the process smoothier and meaningful .     Selection 

 Mind Maping is a strategy that has great feaatures you can use to 

 define how the students learn . I like ti think ypu cna track the whole   process with it . According to the course Mind mapping   looks for patterns   and insights in a large quantity of data   you collect during the research   about the stakeholders . You can also explore visually the current reality .   The effectiveness of mind mapping relies on establishing the criteria of the   “ what - if ” idea generation phase . 

 This strategy invloves several engaging techniques easy to 

 understand and remember for all types of learning , since is more intuitive   than reading a huge report or just listen to somebody explaining the   results of a research .    Mind mapping makes the whole creative process available for   everybody , since you cna extract meaning from data in a way that let   partners and insights emerge .     Application     1- Get data from different sources 

 -   Google Forms surveys 

 -   Peer class observation 

 -   Student´s comments on aspects of the class 

 -   Expert observations 

 2- Have the working team in a creative environment 

 -   Invite the experts 

 -   Sitting in an open area ( garden , cafeteria ) 

 -   Plenty of material ( paper , markers , pictures , data available ,   studnets books and notebooks , some of   project´s evidence ) 

 -   Food ( coffee , chips and fruit ) 

 -   Comfortable chairs and relaxing music . 

 -   Objective written and visually vailable for everybody 

 3- Go through the infomation .      The whole team will go through the information in order , then once the   info is written , the process begins . A useful tip : use different colors for   different purposes , probably using symbols as well . Another team can   have key questions that met the objectives .   An important aspect : all the team must feel confident to express all sorts   of ideas without being judged .        Insight and Approach 

 By using this tool , I have learned that Mind Mapping isn´t just a tool 

 to reflect the team´s ideas , but to effectively approach problems or   identify shortcuts in the whole creative process . Eventhough is not merely   about organizing information , but to visually express it and then taking a   path , I feel that this tool helps to organize the ideas and to discover new   ones along the road . 

 Next time I use this strategy , I would set working teams and having 

 more people involved for working in specific areas with a time limit . Also ,   using the visualization tool first to understand the problem would be a   great way to approach the current situation .
