An Idea Mapping Success Blogs Weblog
I was looking through some of my idea mapping examples that had been created by students and realized that I had not shared these examples previously. They date back to April of 2005 when I taught a workshop for 126 business owners who were part of an organization called “Institute for Entrepreneurial Excellence” which is sponsored by the University of Pittsburgh.
It happened to be “Bring Your Daughter to Work Day”, so an eighth-grader joined her mom for this Idea Mapping Workshop. She was a quick learner, and created a couple of these idea maps during some of the activities, and finished the final one up at home. The top mind map is the instructions for an assignment she was given to deliver an oral report. The second example shows some of the research and information gathering for her oral exam on an organism. The third map is her actual script and the visuals she wanted to include in this presentation.
The purpose of this blog is to share idea mapping examples and related learning from my Idea Mapping, Memory, Speed Reading, and Certification Workshops. This blog is dedicated to my Certified Idea Mapping Instructors, my clients, Mind Mapping and Idea Mapping practitioners around the globe.

Great examples Jamie. I think this is the type of “the proof is in the pudding” examples that people need to see.

I am reading your book and glad to see the idea maps in color here,
but why not make it possible to really enlarge them for a coler look?

Marie – If you double click on the image it enlarges. I just saw that there is a little “+” icon that you can click one more time to enlarge again, but the rest is a WordPress limitation i believe. I wish I could enlarge them as well.
I don’t have them all loaded on my website, but the pdf versions at the website can be enlarged greater than the view from the blog I think.
