Mind maps made me an all A student in school. I would do a mind map while looking through notes or a textbook. Then I would look over it and really try UNDERSTAND the information. Then I would write atleast a page essay of what i remembered.Then put both pages into a folder and glance over all the topics at the beginning of every study session. then when it got closer to exams I would do flashcards on each topic and skim through them. I had very little mental strain too because of it. Organisation is so important.
Mindmaps also help me to learn vocabulary faster and more efficiently. Starting with a topic (for example: Business, Transportation), I draw branches which are words relating to the topic. I organise words' positions so I can see the connection between them. I also use color codes to categorise them (verb-noun-adjective, masculine-neutral-feminine words)
I've been using mind-mapping for 30 years when designing information systems and more recently machine learning algorithms.... it is without question a phenomenal tool/technique !
Really ? for Machine Learning ? The reason I am asking is because I am not sure if this technique is very suitable for including mathematical derivations (or even just equations). Could you please elaborate! In what king of knowledge mapping, would you not use this technique ?
@@siddhantpathak3162 Agreed. One big drawback I see in this implementation is the lack of interconnections between ideas too. Most subjects have relationships among the branches but there are only subdivisions in her examples. I really like the idea though and I'd like to know a good adaptation to mathematical subjects.
@@joet4348 I'm thinking about the subject as well. I think about ways to make sort of "portals in my brain" allowing to jump back and forth between topics while still being able to store information efficiently
I work full time and study law part time whilst I gym 2 times a day, I use mindmaps and I am a straight A student. Its been a life saver. In school and last degree I performed average but now I have elevated myself to Merit standard level all thanks to mindmaps, I really get into the core of any material and disect it in a way that my brain understands best thank you so much
Thank you Hazel for finding and bringing this useful information to the world. Effective MindMapping: 1. Draw a bigger picture about what this overall concept is about. 2. To this bigger picture now, Outline and Connect/relate top important points(use grouping here) 3. Identify flow/sequence(cause effects) in that diagram and represent it likewise. 4. Next, Use effective images, Instead of verbose sentences or words. 5. Lastly, if possible make some story about all concepts in mindmap (Using mnemonics, associations, analogy)
This is absolutely life-changing. As someone who spends a ridiculous amount of time writing down notes in lengthy paragraphs, I realize how much time I have wasted. Even after studying I would still jot down what I've learned into long sentences, even though it was completely unnecessary. I tried this method today after studying to gauge how much I learned and I have to say, it is a much better way to learn indeed, and a faster way as well. It's safe to say that I'll be using this method for the rest of my college years, and probably for the rest of my life. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Thank you.They should be teaching this in schools, children and we all need this knowledge.I am 63 and only now realised I never heard about mind mapping .But surely I am still in time I shall teach my five grandchildren about this importance .Gratitude in sharing and teachings us all.Thank you TED.
Schools just taught us about mind maps but never taught us the importance, their usefulness Humans remember Images, key ideas, things we already knew not paragraphs or even sentences- great line said by her
I have an ADHD diagnosis and struggle daily with significant executive function barriers. Just starting to learn how to utilise external tools like this to help me manage my daily life.
Why we don't have this "mind mapping" lesson at school? I think all school in the world should teach this brilliant way of thinking when we at teenage. Thank you for sharing 🙏
Never got taught about this in school, but one of our college teachers who used it themselves taught it to us. Haven't used it religiously like he does with his work, but I notice remembering it much better when I create mind map for a concept.
I used mind maps as a way to note, build topic and subject maps for exams. Now i have a MBA... In 20 years in business mind maps keep everyone on task.
I can't thank-you enough for teaching and sharing this!! I learnt this a year ago and as a pharmacist, it greatly helps me learn and REMEMBER about disease states and the appropriate drugs to treat the disease. I would learn about a topic and forget. Now I mind map, and if I forget, I review by looking at the mind map without having to read all over again. This has given me the method to remember what I learn. Love it!!
There is so much more to mind mapping than is spoken about in this talk. For example, what about symbols, pictures, and colors? I would HIGHLY recommend checking out Tony Buzan’s, The Mind Map Book. I can promise it will be life-changing.
thanks! looks interesting i have the pdf now. the human brain is probably the most difficult thing to understand still in the whole observable universe. the initial chapter on that alone could be quite something! how has it helped you in life tell me more?
I'm from India. One of our Professors at JNU, New Delhi, told us of this wonderful method of mind mapping. That was way back in 2010.You're the only other person whom I have heard talking of this...👍
Dear Ms. Wagner, You certainly deserved a standing ovation for sharing insights to mindmapping. Thank you for a fresh perspective and ability to simplify, in essence, an effectual sophisticated tool. I loved every minute of your talk and appreciated your experience availability to TEDNaperville and indeed, the UA-cam audience. Mindmapping was introduced to me in 2000 during training as a manager for Estee Lauder Europe. I fell in love immediately, a visual cortex (courting 😊). Thank you Ms. Wagner for refreshing and resetting my approach to completing my published work. I appreciate you.
I've been using "that diagram" to learn while I study for my BSN. I find it ultra effective. The reason I did this technique was I don't have money to buy for a new notebook. 😢I just go to the library, skim and scan and draw the map for the specific concept in 1 piece of paper. 😂 I didn't know it's mind mapping technique. 😅 Our brain is powerful. Thank you for this video. I can formally teach my daughter a science based study skill.❤
I used this in college. I didn't think of it as a mind map but its an awesome way to remember and write papers. I called it the bubble method. Same concept. Thank you Hazel! This is awesome and it works.
as someone who sometimes can forget easily information and also kinda feels annoyed when speakers are involving too much information in a confusing way i am shock and at the same time i leave with a great impression of her as speaker the way she synthetize all the information in such a organized way adding facts , quotes without making it too confusing to understand was awesome !! she really kept me in track and mind wide open throughout the ted talk .. will definetely expect listen more from her !!!
When i was in high school i used to use a lot mind maps, but since i started my major, as an engineer career, i didn't really see how to use mind maps because i just had basic programming and math classes, wich i didn't feel the need of even taking notes. but now i'm having classes where i need to memorize things again and that freaked me out at first because my memory wasn't retaining anything with the notes i used. this ted talk gave me a light again. thanks
Feel frustrated that after 50 yrs this is the first time I hear of mind mapping; feel sorry that I had thought it was my brain not being smart that I couldn’t remember things, and not my linear notes; feel grateful I can share this with others!
Wow she teaches it better than the inventor of it. I'm in nursing school and haven't been happy with my note taking. I always felt there was something missing. Now I found it! I can already tell this is what I've been looking for. She is so right.about traditional note taking merely being transcribing.
thanks you very much . This ted is so good. i don't use mind map much before until i start studying university. i realize that diagram is very useful and if use it comformly, you will easier success. i listen this video more and more and more. her voice is warm and smoothy.
The things i learned was amazing 1:how to inculcate jokes into your notes 2: make things fun when you study 3: brain loves funny things as it stores those info in form of stories 4: test your skills with active recall method and other simple testing things in order to challenge your mind and your skills and polish it
Interesting talk. I kept wishing that we could have looked at her mind map while she was speaking, instead of the camera panning to the darkened room where the audience sat. I guess there has to be some extra benefit to being there in person.
I believe that the mind map is one of the best forms of study since with keywords and ideas you only have to learn the most important and a whole paragraph with things that don't matter much about the topic. This method is very important for children because helps the brain to better understand the subject.
I’ve been using this technique almost 2years now wherein the meetings or studying and I gradually found that this mind mapping improved my mind logically a lot and even adjusted the speed of my thinking.
I can write short hand as fast as people can talk. I learned this in the military having to synthesize the information quickly. But sometimes it would be hard to translate. But this Professor has it exactly right. While it’s good to be able to write things down as it comes reinforces the lecture but this mind mapping method is really really good. It helps you really focus organize and structure a solid framework on you subject making it easier to master the subject and presentation. It’s almost like magic. Excellent Lecture! Nicely Done ✅
I'm teaching a class for first semester college freshmen and we are in the part of class where I share different study or note taking strategies. I want to incorporate this video about mind mapping in case any of my students feel this would benefit them. Hazel can explain it MUCH better than I could!!
I learnt mind mapping recently and I am going crazy on it. Following through the words of presentor on teching it others, I have recently started blogging about my learning and I attach a mindmap with everyone of them. Lets make this world a beautiful place
My chemistry teacher taught us about mind maps and how to use them to remember the synthetic routes/reaction pathways. Don't know why I haven't incorporated it into my other subjects as it's been really helpful for me in remembering all the ways organic substances can react
I really glad to watch this video. 5 years back when I was in school, I used to do mind maps for subjects or even some interesting topics separately. At that time, I don't know about the impact of this mind map in my studies. After entering into college, actually I forgot about this mind maps and took notes in n number of pages. Then, IDK what is the reason but I started to feel like less confident person, i struggled much to remember things and a lot more. I started to think about these issues but I didn't get the root cause of issues. Now, this video gave me the answer for all my problems. Now, I really wanted to do whatever things like mind map that I followed while in school. I believe this note will be useful for others as well.
mentioned some points which picked from video Help to remember things Forgot many things which heard Transcribing while note things without organizing While listening Write all the things, You won't able to pay attention Learn => store => retrieve Listen and writing not possible Plain page Center topic name of lectutrar Make multiple branch from there and create connection between them Write short prashese instead sentence Store images, key idea connection between them That's how brain mapping works Write keywords Write most important Write short phrases, connection branches Think about how to fit in mapping help to remember
That probably deserved a standing ovation... but I noticed almost everyone in the audience was old, so they were probably just angry no one taught them this sooner the same way Hazel was.
Thank you. I am studying a Psychology honours degree. I used this for my essay, great!!! All the important concepts I need to include, I remembered XXX
In language learning, mind mapping gives a great help to the learners. It can help them improve their speaking, writing, summarizing and of course reading. Great Video! Thanks!
Two points of the talk came to my mind. First, Tony Buzan always stressed using single words on the branches and topics, but I was never able to do this with any regularity. Thanks for emphasizing that short phrases are also OK. Second, I will admit to striving to write ideas down, often verbatim. Now I realize that it is better to form the topic or idea and use your own words. Thanks.
Yes, been doing this for 40 years. Funny when people at work see me doing it, I get the strangest comments like I was doing something bizarre. Like oh I don't think that way or I don't have time to do that. I'm thinking who cares what you think!
Thank you Hazel for this greate Talk on Mind Mapping. I am using Mind Maps for more then 20 Years and still are surprised how easy this tool is. I also agree with you to do Mind Maps on paper - Quick - Every where available - Personal - made for my brain...
Thank you for this video!! I am a Hong Kong student studying for DSE, I know mind maps existed but never realized the importance until now, and yes I feel a little angry I wasn't using mind maps to take notes during class in the past 6 years of secondary school.
I've experimented with mind maps for problem solving - here's a short summary. I use a blank A4 sheet in landscape format, and divide it in 3x3 equal cells (just by hand, no ruler needed). I have prepared a couple of sticky notes so I can see them from my desk. On a central sticky note, I have some key processes, like orientation, asking questions, generating ideas, looking back, and perhaps two others. For each of these key processes, I have another sticky note with stimuli that help me with the process, like a list of general questions I find useful ("What's puzzling? What happens if I make changes to one part?" etc.). With this toolbox in front of me, I start in the first cell, usually with a mind map on orientation about my topic. Each cell is fairly small, and I have it filled soon - after that I can decide what aspect to investigate in more depth in the next cell, or I can look back from a new cell on the previous one. For each cell, I can decide what layout works best - in most cases, I use a mind map, but sometimes it's a diagram or just ordinary text lines. Personally, I find this 3x3 approach useful for three reasons. First, in my experience, a single mind map on a large sheet suggests a layout with several main branches of equal weight - but in problem solving, I often want to follow a path of ideas, and this path would make a classical mind map highly asymmetrical. Second, the transition from one cell to to the next triggers me to refocus and to understand what I'm doing right now, so these things happen more often in the 3x3 setting than in the classical map. Third, I find it much easier to look back on an aspect in one map from a new cell than from a branch in the same large map. Some final remarks. Depending on handwriting, aesthetic taste and paper size, one can experiment with 2x2, 3x3 or 4x4 cells. From my experience, it seems a good idea to assemble a personal tool box of stimuli. The Wikipedia page on problem solving or Project Zero at Harvard's Graduate School of Education are possible starting points. I organize the sheets in a zettelkasten - but that's another topic.
First, thanks for writing this comment. Now I understand what Hazel meant by "mind maps are highly personal", I don't really understand what you're doing, rather it's very useful to see what problems you've encountered. Also, your idea of creating a process for solving a problem through a mind map is phenomenal, I will surely do this, sounds very exciting, I've always felt like there are so many things to think about even before solving a problem so this is really exciting. Thank you again for the idea!
Excellent talk. I'm new to mind mapping and I already see the power of organizing information in this way. It's inspiring to hear that someone this educated found this tool helpful.
I remember my teacher telling me about this years ago except she called it a spider diagram. I think I was about 6 or 7 I still use it today especially for creative writing. The idea is that you get the ideas out quick and how one is connected to another. It works great.
If you just write what you think important, you don't challenge your thinking. I write what my lecturer thinks is important because I'm not there to confirm my preconceived ideas. I want all their thoughts so I can go away and consider how it sits with my prior knowledge, experience and other readings, then I challenge myself with new possibilities or directions to explore.
Really great to see such a great scholar delivering politely and allowing our mind to get dynamically unlocked thanku I dnt know how much i can do in mind mapping but i will try my level best to do that
Thx, Hazel! i have the mmbook for dummies and i started using it and then, moving to new place, forgot my not-yet-habit. your talk renewed my enthusiasm. so much more effective than linear notes! my brain never would lv enuf space for the ideas teacher was presenting--no room to grow the thot! good job, great service for our kids and all of us--elders too!
Your mind mapping is used in book instead of summary at last page in lesson. This idea is amazing🤩 to learn anything, thank you🙏🏻 very much to tell us about Mind Mapping
I keep thinking of keywords and keyword phrases when I listened to her. I think mind mapping is how to extract keywords and keyword phrases of a subject and connected them together, and also further develop them by branching out.
Very interesting Ted Talk. It held my attention and convinced me to integrate mind mapping into my daily life. I do have a very good memory but there is always room for improvement. Ms Wagner made it sound easy, accessible, and available to anyone.
when i learned this technique my teacher called it brain storming a topic. It was taught in a journalism class in high school. I've used it since. I was thrilled to find mind mapping! I'm in an LXD course now online. Mind mapping isn't central to the teachings of the Life Long Learner principle. But I stil think its one of the best tools i have to induce thinking
I had one of my teacher in school asking us make mind maps instead of notes to learn better but I never knew the real science behind it. Thank you so much for the valuable insights and the clear explanation of the idea.
There'sno way to not get agry with that when you really make a point of thinking creative and actually remeber it after all. Thank you so much for this TED.
Greatly appreciate her presentation. For those who wish to use a computer-based tool, focused on mind-mapping, there is an excellent open-source application called "Freemind". The current "1.1.0 Beta2" is surprising rich in features.
as a lifelong learner also I have always been interested in how people learn. this seems to me to be written mnemonics , which I have never been good at. many helpful applications, I will continue to try this.thank you
I'm genuinely concerned how much info the internet is stealing from me because this is exactly the video I needed as I've been bothered by not being able to memorize something for a long time
It really helped me for subjects like history that has many branches to memorize, I was surprised for getting few mistakes. I really think, I am a visual learner
Dharmendra Rai, some of the earliest examples of such graphical records were developed by Porphyry of Tyros, a noted thinker of the 3rd century, as he graphically visualized the concept categories of Aristotle. Philosopher, Ramon Llull (1235-1315) also used such techniques.
This video motivates to people to develop theirs mind, organize the ideas and creativity when they create a mind mapping for their schools and jobs. I think it is the better option to learn and explain about a specific topic because it uses a single words, images and short phrases.
I've heard about mind mapping lately in a discord community. Some folks were discussing it and as this thing was new to me, I thought before bothering them, I'd better check it out on youtube first. This video has taught me about this mind mapping concept. I'll put this into action when I work on a project.
Messages I am receiving about how my talk has helped them progress in some way, heartwarming. A fulfillment of my purpose.

No offense to anyone, but mind maps don't help me for studying, personally. I'd rather use it for something else.
It doesn't work to everybody :(

Learning is about pattern recognition, realizing how one information connects to the other. That's all it is.

It helps you really focus organize and structure a solid framework on you subject making it easier to master the subject and presentation. It’s almost like magic. Excellent Lecture! Nicely Done ✅
I'm teaching a class for first semester college freshmen and we are in the part of class where I share different study or note taking strategies. I want to incorporate this video about mind mapping in case any of my students feel this would benefit them. Hazel can explain it MUCH better than I could!!
This will really be great for them I normally use it when killing youth in Africa .
I learnt mind mapping recently and I am going crazy on it. Following through the words of presentor on teching it others, I have recently started blogging about my learning and I attach a mindmap with everyone of them.
Lets make this world a beautiful place
My chemistry teacher taught us about mind maps and how to use them to remember the synthetic routes/reaction pathways. Don't know why I haven't incorporated it into my other subjects as it's been really helpful for me in remembering all the ways organic substances can react
Not involve completely, she spoke so easy to hear for the person that's not good at english like me!. the way she represented is really clear!!
listen at 1.25x or 1.5x speed
I wanna absorb her in the natural speed she talks
used 2x instead. Worked for me surprisingly
I listened at 1.25x
Yes. 1.5x works brilliantly for me. 👌🏽
Yes thank you
I really glad to watch this video. 5 years back when I was in school, I used to do mind maps for subjects or even some interesting topics separately. At that time, I don't know about the impact of this mind map in my studies. After entering into college, actually I forgot about this mind maps and took notes in n number of pages. Then, IDK what is the reason but I started to feel like less confident person, i struggled much to remember things and a lot more. I started to think about these issues but I didn't get the root cause of issues. Now, this video gave me the answer for all my problems.
Now, I really wanted to do whatever things like mind map that I followed while in school. I believe this note will be useful for others as well.
Can we commend her on how good she speaks at public? I aspire to become like this. She is a very good story teller.
mentioned some points which picked from video
Help to remember things
Forgot many things which heard
Transcribing while note things without organizing
While listening Write all the things, You won't able to pay attention
Learn => store => retrieve
Listen and writing not possible
Plain page
Center topic name of lectutrar
Make multiple branch from there and create connection between them
Write short prashese instead sentence
Store images, key idea connection between them
That's how brain mapping works
Write keywords
Write most important
Write short phrases, connection branches
Think about how to fit in mapping help to remember
That probably deserved a standing ovation... but I noticed almost everyone in the audience was old, so they were probably just angry no one taught them this sooner the same way Hazel was.
😂
Hahaha
@@Identity1010 is
😂😂
Thank you. I am studying a Psychology honours degree. I used this for my essay, great!!! All the important concepts I need to include, I remembered XXX
In language learning, mind mapping gives a great help to the learners. It can help them improve their speaking, writing, summarizing and of course reading. Great Video! Thanks!
I'm learning a language, could you give me an example please? I don’t know how to use mine mapping for language learning
Two points of the talk came to my mind. First, Tony Buzan always stressed using single words on the branches and topics, but I was never able to do this with any regularity. Thanks for emphasizing that short phrases are also OK. Second, I will admit to striving to write ideas down, often verbatim. Now I realize that it is better to form the topic or idea and use your own words. Thanks.
I concur. Even worse, I struggle with short phrases, but using an app saves the day.
I was looking for a reference to Buzan ... I wonder why he doesn't get more credit
Yes, been doing this for 40 years. Funny when people at work see me doing it, I get the strangest comments like I was doing something bizarre. Like oh I don't think that way or I don't have time to do that. I'm thinking who cares what you think!
Excellent
Mind maps are great for images, key ideas and connections. Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you Hazel for this greate Talk on Mind Mapping. I am using Mind Maps for more then 20 Years and still are surprised how easy this tool is. I also agree with you to do Mind Maps on paper - Quick - Every where available - Personal - made for my brain...
Any newbie mistakes to avoid. Thx
Thank you for this video!! I am a Hong Kong student studying for DSE, I know mind maps existed but never realized the importance until now, and yes I feel a little angry I wasn't using mind maps to take notes during class in the past 6 years of secondary school.
Kept my attention from beginning to end. Natural orator. Wonderful brain, thanks for sharing.
Was struggling with self studying and UA-cam recommended this...I'm thankful
I've experimented with mind maps for problem solving - here's a short summary.
I use a blank A4 sheet in landscape format, and divide it in 3x3 equal cells (just by hand, no ruler needed).
I have prepared a couple of sticky notes so I can see them from my desk. On a central sticky note, I have some key processes, like orientation, asking questions, generating ideas, looking back, and perhaps two others. For each of these key processes, I have another sticky note with stimuli that help me with the process, like a list of general questions I find useful ("What's puzzling? What happens if I make changes to one part?" etc.).
With this toolbox in front of me, I start in the first cell, usually with a mind map on orientation about my topic. Each cell is fairly small, and I have it filled soon - after that I can decide what aspect to investigate in more depth in the next cell, or I can look back from a new cell on the previous one.
For each cell, I can decide what layout works best - in most cases, I use a mind map, but sometimes it's a diagram or just ordinary text lines.
Personally, I find this 3x3 approach useful for three reasons.
First, in my experience, a single mind map on a large sheet suggests a layout with several main branches of equal weight - but in problem solving, I often want to follow a path of ideas, and this path would make a classical mind map highly asymmetrical.
Second, the transition from one cell to to the next triggers me to refocus and to understand what I'm doing right now, so these things happen more often in the 3x3 setting than in the classical map.
Third, I find it much easier to look back on an aspect in one map from a new cell than from a branch in the same large map.
Some final remarks.
Depending on handwriting, aesthetic taste and paper size, one can experiment with 2x2, 3x3 or 4x4 cells.
From my experience, it seems a good idea to assemble a personal tool box of stimuli. The Wikipedia page on problem solving or Project Zero at Harvard's Graduate School of Education are possible starting points.
I organize the sheets in a zettelkasten - but that's another topic.
First, thanks for writing this comment. Now I understand what Hazel meant by "mind maps are highly personal", I don't really understand what you're doing, rather it's very useful to see what problems you've encountered. Also, your idea of creating a process for solving a problem through a mind map is phenomenal, I will surely do this, sounds very exciting, I've always felt like there are so many things to think about even before solving a problem so this is really exciting. Thank you again for the idea!
這個演講的內容非常有價值，滿滿的乾貨，本人需要看字幕才能理解90%內容。遺憾沒有中文翻譯。國內bilibili也沒有。強烈推薦！
Excellent talk. I'm new to mind mapping and I already see the power of organizing information in this way. It's inspiring to hear that someone this educated found this tool helpful.
This lady is amazing. She is really good at giving presentations and mind maps are incredible by the way
I remember my teacher telling me about this years ago except she called it a spider diagram. I think I was about 6 or 7 I still use it today especially for creative writing. The idea is that you get the ideas out quick and how one is connected to another. It works great.
Agreed. We called it a spider diagram in school.
This was a very valuable use of my time! Mind mapping can help everyone... and anyone.. be more productive! Thank you Hazel. 🤩
If you just write what you think important, you don't challenge your thinking. I write what my lecturer thinks is important because I'm not there to confirm my preconceived ideas. I want all their thoughts so I can go away and consider how it sits with my prior knowledge, experience and other readings, then I challenge myself with new possibilities or directions to explore.
Really great to see such a great scholar delivering politely and allowing our mind to get dynamically unlocked thanku I dnt know how much i can do in mind mapping but i will try my level best to do that
Another great Ted talk! I used mind maps in my laters years of study, wish I had found about it earlier! Great technique for note taking at University
Thx, Hazel! i have the mmbook for dummies and i started using it and then, moving to new place, forgot my not-yet-habit. your talk renewed my enthusiasm. so much more effective than linear notes! my brain never would lv enuf space for the ideas teacher was presenting--no room to grow the thot! good job, great service for our kids and all of us--elders too!
Just discovered this tool for enhancing memory today! Definitely going to put it into practice in my academic life. Thanks.
I read a chapter and then use mind maps to do my revision and it has proven to be very helpful.
That is a very helpful way to learn and takes notes easily
God bless her
Your mind mapping is used in book instead of summary at last page in lesson.
This idea is amazing🤩 to learn anything, thank you🙏🏻 very much to tell us about Mind Mapping
I keep thinking of keywords and keyword phrases when I listened to her. I think mind mapping is how to extract keywords and keyword phrases of a subject and connected them together, and also further develop them by branching out.
So Grateful for this precious❤❤❤🥺🙏🙇♀️
Very interesting Ted Talk. It held my attention and convinced me to integrate mind mapping into my daily life. I do have a very good memory but there is always room for improvement.
Ms Wagner made it sound easy, accessible, and available to anyone.
Thanks, Dr. Wagner. I'm sharing this with my class because we have to make a mind map for our assignment. I'll use this technique onwards!
I agree with her that images and key words sticks in the brain easily 👍
when i learned this technique my teacher called it brain storming a topic. It was taught in a journalism class in high school. I've used it since. I was thrilled to find mind mapping! I'm in an LXD course now online. Mind mapping isn't central to the teachings of the Life Long Learner principle. But I stil think its one of the best tools i have to induce thinking
I had one of my teacher in school asking us make mind maps instead of notes to learn better but I never knew the real science behind it. Thank you so much for the valuable insights and the clear explanation of the idea.
There'sno way to not get agry with that when you really make a point of thinking creative and actually remeber it after all. Thank you so much for this TED.
Greatly appreciate her presentation. For those who wish to use a computer-based tool, focused on mind-mapping, there is an excellent open-source application called "Freemind". The current "1.1.0 Beta2" is surprising rich in features.
Thanks
so true. Mindmaps are amazing. It has changed the way I look at new information and take notes.
I really love how her speaking, I think I can improve my english by watching her once
as a lifelong learner also I have always been interested in how people learn. this seems to me to be written mnemonics , which I have never been good at. many helpful applications, I will continue to try this.thank you
How to “learn to pay attention” is best done standing not hungry not distracted
I'm genuinely concerned how much info the internet is stealing from me because this is exactly the video I needed as I've been bothered by not being able to memorize something for a long time
Lol!
It really helped me for subjects like history that has many branches to memorize, I was surprised for getting few mistakes. I really think, I am a visual learner
I'm glad I've seen this video it would definitely help me improve my speaking on a certain topics for my exam!
Amazing tool, I never knew that it could be so good. I could understand the whole video with only a view. Thank you.🙏
Tony Buzan the inventor of mind mapping is also a Nobel Prize Nominee !
Dharmendra Rai, some of the earliest examples of such graphical records were developed by Porphyry of Tyros, a noted thinker of the 3rd century, as he graphically visualized the concept categories of Aristotle. Philosopher, Ramon Llull
(1235-1315) also used such techniques.
Zafar Ullah .. That's what Americans do often, and that's why they are good at business : )
also in communication @deependra.
sourabh goyal 😃😀🙏
He is not a Nobel prize nominee. Get your facts straight!
This video motivates to people to develop theirs mind, organize the ideas and creativity when they create a mind mapping for their schools and jobs. I think it is the better option to learn and explain about a specific topic because it uses a single words, images and short phrases.
Been following this method since I was a kid without knowing what it's called! nice speech
I've heard about mind mapping lately in a discord community. Some folks were discussing it and as this thing was new to me, I thought before bothering them, I'd better check it out on youtube first.
This video has taught me about this mind mapping concept. I'll put this into action when I work on a project.
i mind mapped this video about mind mapping. ( for practice) : )
Mindception
Can you show us
@@notoriousbeg ¹¹1¹¹111111111
That was good practice.
I mind mapped a book about How to mind map haha
Totally makes sense now, it's like replicating your neurons and connections. The wider the connection, the stronger the thought is.
I hope a lot of teachers watch and apply this; in my expirience only a couple of them used it (some are too lazy to stand beside the chalkboard)
