Mapping is a graphic (visual) organizer that allows you to investigate the relationships between many diverse ideas.
It’s a simple process best used for exploring simple topics. To make a map, draw a circle and add spokes radiat-
ing from it. Put your central idea or subject in the middle, and add subtopics or related ideas around it in any order.
Or, draw a box with your subject written in it and continue adding boxes, connected to each other by arrows, show-
ing the development of your idea. As with other brainstorming techniques, don’t judge yourself during this process.
Write down any and every thought you have on your subject.
