Thinking Maps

Thinking Maps (David Hyerle, 1980s) – visual aids that are designed to afford useful structures for organizing information, linking ideas, and communicating insights. There are eight types of Thinking Maps, each intended to reflect a specific thinking process: Brace Map (whole–part relationships), Bridge Map (for illustrating analogies and metaphors), Bubble Map (effective use of adjectives), Circle Map (context-specific definitions), Double Bubble Map (for comparing and contrasting), Flow Map (for ordering events), Multi-Flow Map (for analyzing cause-and-effect), Tree Map (for clustering and classifying)
