Mind Mapping

Comment l'animer

1. 1

   Place the central topic or question in the middle of a large blank page, enclosed in a circle or image.

2. 2

   Draw branches outward from the centre for each major theme or category. Label each branch.

3. 3

   Add sub-branches from each main branch for specific ideas, details, or associations.

4. 4

   Use keywords, not sentences. Add images, symbols, and colours to aid memory and association.

5. 5

   Continue until the topic is exhausted or the paper is full.

6. 6

   Review the map: what connections between branches weren't obvious before?

Conseils

• Resist the temptation to organise too early — let the branches flow.

• Connections between different branches are often the most valuable insights.

• Digital mind mapping tools (Miro, MindMeister) enable collaboration but sacrifice the spatial freedom of paper.',

Variantes

Run as a collaborative group mind map on a large whiteboard. Use for structured note-taking during lectures or interviews. Apply as a workshop agenda design tool.
