Week 4: Peta Minda or Mind Map?
Peta minda or mind map? Hmm, basically, they are the same. Peta minda is mind map in Malaysia language. Talking about mind map, I had experience on doing it. I bet most of my class mate had the experience on doing it because during our foundation studies in MMU, there is design subject, Design Fundamental, we are trained to do mind map and I actually like it. It is because it really helps us especially designers for executing ideas on designing for a project for a client. Besides that, doing mind map given a large space to “scribble” anything from thoughts, drawing in a piece of paper. It is all thanks to the creator of mind map, Tony Buzon. According to him, the idea of mind map inspired by Alfred Korzybski's general semantics as popularized in most science fiction novel [source from Wikipedia.com]. Look at his one of mind map based on Tony Buzon’s theory .
“Mind maps were developed in the late 60s by Tony Buzan as a way of helping students make notes that used only key words and images. They are much quicker to make, and because of their visual quality much easier to remember and review. The non-linear nature of mind maps makes it easy to link and cross-reference different elements of the map” [source from http://www.peterrussell.com/MindMaps/mindmap.php] I’m 100 percent agrees with the facts written on Peter Russell’s site. It is true that mind map helps us to remember or make short notes with keyword and related images. Based on my experience during Design Fundamental, Che Mad[who introduces mind map for Design Fundamental] advise us to be balance on doing the mind map or else it is going to be a boring mind map where nowadays human beings hated to read text and irritating colors. As I recalled, Mr. Halim had taught us that mind maps has two type which is, logical and non logical [non-linear]. From the article above, making non logical mind map makes easy link and cross-reference than logical mind map. Yes, that is true because during the class where Mr. Halim presented a logical mind map-map and it is linked align to the grid where it has no free space to scribble around and it tend to make me feel bored and confuse.
Overall, doing mind mapping is a good start for us to remember facts and it is easily to do yet fun with playing with different color to avoid making us bored and loose interests on it. So, thanks again to Tony Buzon who invented creative mind map.
