Mind Mapping and Clustering Written and compiled by Miss Dana Shaaban & Anita J. Ghajar-Selim
Clustering/Mind Mapping • When you write down words or concepts associated with the topic – any ideas that come into your mind • Another way to organize your ideas. • Start with your topic in the center, and branch out from there with related ideas. • Use words and phrases, not complete sentences. • While mind mapping is more useful for chapter reviews, test preparation, and organizing, clustering is a good tool for short entries or essays.
