Paper Summary:

This paper consists of two questions related to research and design. The paper explains how the first question relates to the importance of making a mind map and an outline with regard to a research project. The paper describes how these are essential planning stages in the research process. The paper's second question asks the student to evaluate what problems he or she has encountered with regard to the research project.

From the Paper:

"Outlines and mind maps are of the utmost importance when doing a formal paper, as well as when doing research for a paper of any length. However, I would like to qualify this statement by saying that people's minds work differently and I would be hard pressed to imagine a single method of planning that would work well for everyone. Mind maps and outlines come close, though, because they are flexible enough to allow for individual expression and use. I think the substance is more important that a rigid adherence to the form. That is, I think that in making a mind map or outline, the form that is prescribed is there in order to guide the generation of ideas."
