[ Logical Mind Map VS Associated Mind Map ]

So, few days back..the topic in the class was actually continued from last week topic, we’re still in “ Mind Map “ topic, and here I am going to talk about the two types of Mind Mapping.

Well..i explained in previous topic about mind mapping in general, and those explanations are useful to understand more about how mind map works or how to make one, etc. Fortunately, Tony Buzan invented two types of mind map, so u gotta choose which one is suitable for the thing you are doing.

The first one is a Logical Mind Map, why we call it as logical ?! it is simply because logical mind map is based on stereotype, it means we are going to reflect things that we have every day or around us, or stuffs that we talk and being recognized easily by everyone, etc. It is easier to make a logical mind map because you just have to refer to things which are connected to each other and make it as links.
Honestly, mind map is kind of a new stuff for me, though I knew it while back ago..i didn’t really have interest to apply it in my life. Nonetheless, for some reasons, I do understand better..how it helps , It keeps you right on the track.

On the other hand, the way of Associated Mind Map is slightly different from logical mind map, and the next question is why we call it as an associated ? It is because u have to connect the word by associating them, means that u don’t do stereotype as you can do in logical mind map and u don't really do the easy connection, it takes u to think harder to linking them and it doesn’t really make sense to look at but somehow they are explained by each other.

Last week, the class was finished pretty earlier..but we had a homework which we are assigned to do a logical mind map by Mr.Halim. So..this is my finale work. :)




yeeaaaa, my mind map is about health, as u can see in the image. I did mine based on stereotype, a simple explanations that easily understand by everyone. That is logical mind map.

Unfortunately, we didnt have any task to make an associated mind map, but i'll give an example that i found on the net.



by the way..the class was not finished yet ;)
so, in that day..Mr Radzi showed as a picture of Mortar and Pestle, he showed an associate mind map of mortar and pestle (the picture will be given downward). The task was...we had to choose 3 words from all the words given in the associated mind map he has, and re-create the functions of mortar and pestle for year 20009.





These are the words i chose and my sentences :

a. Teacher : Back in 20009, teachers used mortar to erase the white board, and the pestle for writing in the white board.
b. Smoke : Back to 20009, people smoke by the pestle, and mortar as the astray.
c. Mcdonalds : back to 20009, Mcdonalds waiter used the mortar and pestle as a sign to call the customer when their meal is ready.

Doesnt it sound funny & impossible ?! It doesn't make sense anyway, but this is how it is for, 'creating ideas', you have to come out even with the craziest idea that u have in your head..you have to do a bit brainstorming. Its fun and really interesting :)


CHEERS!!
