Example Reflection – Mind Mapping

Challenge & Selection

Our team has gone through several design thinking activities but now, at this time, I use mind mapping  tool. According to David Kelley, the founder of IDEO said, when I'm trying to do something creative, I  make a mind-map. Nowadays, without creativity you are nothing. So both in personal and social life that  wants to be able to come up with a bright look and to solve problems, are immense. However, the burden  of our lifestyles and educational approaches often push our natural creative abilities into the background.  Our plan is to reawaken the creativity in students and develop it in a sensible way that suits them.  Students will then leave their schools with a new enthusiasm for using creativity and sensible techniques  to help them to be more innovative in future. These techniques can be used in a wide range of situations  from inventing new products or processes to enhancing problem-solving and life-long learning. Through  mind mapping we will teach them, in such a way that not only allows them WHAT to think but also  HOW to think as well.

Application

Through this mind mapping tool, Students will use basic thinking tools and develop skills in their use by  practicing them on the nature of problems that they may encounter in real life. Students will then be  capable to apply the tools to scenarios that they may face in their studies or even at home or in the  community as well .This mind mapping module assist a systematic approach to the development of  thinking skills. In other words, it brings students through a step-by-step process, starting with the  introduction of thinking tools and then systematically considering various thinking situations.

Insight

By applying this mind mapping tool, students will be able to apply creative thinking tools and techniques  to coursework, study, revision and examination. Our team identified assumptions and designed mind  mapping to test our assumption. Due to this, we would improve our aim/workflow. So that students  integrate the use of whole-brain skills via design process. They use specific tools to boost up their  outcomes of innovative ideas and use well suited problem-solving techniques to identify the real cause of  and best solutions to problems encountered in daily life.

Approach

It’s encouraged to implement this mind mapping module at different levels with various scenarios  according to students’ development. It’s not just restricted to basic education, but could be extended to  senior secondary level as well with different tools. The thing that important most is Life experience. So  students can not develop thinking skills by just listening how to do until or unless they can’t go in that  situation. Teachers should support students to go outside the given information, let them time to think,  strength their creative abilities, value their inventive attributes, teach them useful thinking techniques and  design process, and create a ambiance conductive to innovation.

At the end, I would say that if I will be an entrepreneur in future, I would be consider this tool as an asset,  so that I will boost up my business whether it would be public oriented or private !
