This is the first and second of a series of seven graphics. They explain what "Thinking
Maps" are. These are from a thesis entitled "Thinking Maps as Tools for Multiple Modes of
Understanding" by David Nelson Hyerle. The 11 page monograph going around here has no
completed examples. What I have done is make completed examples and explanations.
The complete monograph from which Hyerle's Chapter 5 Expand Your Thinking is taken is at this link:

As explained in the first graphic, the problem with the current use of thinking maps is they
are too complex. They should be used to SIMPLIFY. They are NOT for making
compendiums of complete units.
If anyone is interested in the whole series of graphics, then comment on this. If no one is
interested, then I won't shit up the bread with worthless crap and not won't post them.
