Mind map ≈ common sense block diagram+filled color painting

In other words, its basic function has the following two points:

1, combing and summarizing knowledge

2. Enhance visual memory, which is equivalent to a simple version of "mnemonics" or "photographic memory".

The derivative function is:

1, using divergent thinking to solve practical problems

2, students solve logical problems

From this perspective, mind mapping is a more "all-round" tool. However, the more universal the tool is, the worse its pertinence and operability will be.

In other words, the more autistic the content logic depicted by mind map, the worse the function of mind map.

For example, compared with other subjects, mathematics is relatively autistic, so it is a bit difficult to apply mind mapping in mathematics.

Of course, it is not that mind mapping is useless, but the landlord should know that mind mapping is not a tool specially designed for mathematics; The original intention of tony bazan's mind map design is only to help improve the efficiency of absorbing information.

On the other hand, mathematics is a logical system with its own set of targeted information processing methods. I remember the high school math teacher said that everyone has his own "math reading speed", that is, the ability to understand and remember math knowledge from books. This "mathematical reading speed" and the reading speed in "fast reading" mentioned by tony bazan are completely different concepts, so mind mapping can't improve the mathematical reading speed. What the students on the first floor said about "speeding up reading math books" is pure fiction. Do you believe that students on the first floor will take a mathematical analysis to "mind map"?

P.S. Speaking of this, I think many mind mapping training advertisements emphasize the wide application of mind mapping in foreign teaching. In fact, these are all gimmicks, a business trick. In fact, mind mapping (more accurately, divergent thinking) may be more used in management and other fields abroad; In mathematics, there is no shadow of mind mapping at all. I know some students who went to college abroad, but I have never heard of seeing mind maps in math classes. Even in other subjects, there is no shadow of mind mapping, and I have never seen any classmate take a calculus class in the math department with a lot of colored pencils. If you don't believe the landlord, you can look at the open courses of mathematics departments in foreign universities. After watching dozens of episodes, I really haven't seen the shadow of mind mapping.

I don't need to read the above paragraphs, but I want to read the following paragraphs, which is a summary of my years of contact with various learning methods.

I believe the landlord has also studied some history. In modern times, China was awakened by foreign guns and began a series of explorations to become a powerful country. An example of the failure of exploration is the Westernization Movement. The initiator of the Westernization Movement believed that China was bullied because his equipment was not advanced enough and the quality of soldiers was not good enough. This view proved to be a failure. The practice of China people for a century has proved that the fundamental reason for China's backwardness lies in the backward feudal social system, not in the failure to introduce foreign xx rifles or to use some advanced foreign training methods.

Similarly, in today's world, the education level of foreign countries is far ahead of that of China, and foreign students often receive high-quality education. However, the advanced level of foreign education is not due to the adoption of an advanced scientific teaching method or the use of mind maps (besides, whether it is useful or not is unknown), but to the advanced education system.

Moreover, some students learn mathematics well, not because they use mind maps or other wonderful learning methods, but because they have a strong interest in mathematics, master the learning rules of mathematics and master the thinking methods. It is crazy to wander from the surface of mathematics with mind mapping. Remember, no mathematician can draw mind maps.

Therefore, it is the best policy to exercise your mathematical mind and your insight and reasoning ability. To use an online buzzword, mind maps are all floating clouds, and only my mathematical mind is king.

Ps once again: If the landlord is confused about mathematics, please open a new page to ask questions. Here I only discuss the matter of mind mapping, not the learning method of mathematics, otherwise the space is too horrible.
