Mind maps and flow charts are useful tools for assisting the user in completing projects or assignments by providing logical sequencing, and archiving of information. Mind maps allow the user to see connections between various thoughts and ideas by mapping them out on the computer screen for visual representation. Similarly, flow charts take ideas and information through a sequence of events from its beginning to its end. For me, mind mapping is the first step taken in completing a project because it allows you to get all of your thoughts out. Then the information can be “mapped” in sequential order to show the connections and eliminating any information that is not needed. Once the mapping is complete, a flow chart can sequence the information so that it flows seamlessly from its beginning to its end.
I plan to use the mind meister tool to archive my notes and brainstorm ideas for my upcoming paper about my observations of the Junior Reserve Officer Training Corp at a local area high school. This tool should enable me to complete my project by organizing everything in a clear, concise manner which I can then use to produce an organized, complete representation of my observation experience.
