What are your main takeaways from this exercise? Did you make any new conclusions, or discover something you hadn’t noticed before?
Mind maps are most insightful when you learn something in the process of doing. It looks to me like you did some good thinking about the many facets and pieces of your topic. I challenge you to think to the future, and consider what the scope of your research is going to be. Can you cover all of these issues effectively? Are there one or two that captivate you the most?
With all your passion for this topic, I think you can make something great happen with your work here. Keep on truckin’.
Hi Theo,
The break-down of your mind map was very helpful and it is really cool to see how your focus has shifted as you have been studying your topic. I think the different colors, shapes, symbols and visuals really help accent and convey your topic and thoughts. I also really like how you look at more broad, nationwide examples of gender inequality but then pull it back to the focus of Vermont. Thank you for a great mind map Theo!
