The power of images and text: mind mapping for learning

How often have you heard the expression “A picture is worth a thousand words”? It’s inherently true. Within a split second of seeing an image your brain interprets multiple factors, and led you to think in a certain way.

Whether it is an emergency exit sign, an arrow on the ground, the icon on your computer desktop or even the logo of a brand, all are symbols and images that your brain interprets simply and quickly. Even in the meetings we attend, we all use symbols to convey things that would otherwise take time to write out.
