80% of all information that comes into our brain is
VISUAL
40% of all nerve fibers connected to the brain are
linked to the retina
36,000 visual messages per hour may be registered by the
eyes.

Knowledge is stored in two forms:
Research proves that the more we use
both systems of representation,
the better we are able to
think and recall knowledge.

NOTE MAKING GUIDE
For the BUBBLE MAP
Descriptors can be sensory, comparative, emotional or aesthetic.
Adjectives and adjective phrases only.Great for vocabulary development (vivid word choice) and inferential thinking.
Focus on adjectives. One strategy is to keep a “Circle on the Side.”

Page 41NOTE MAKING GUIDE
For the DOUBLE BUBBLE MAP
How are these two things similar and different? Why are these similarities and differences important? What have you learned by constructing this map?
Helps students compare and contrast any ideas, people, cultures, concepts, things they are studying.
Because of the depth of thought, students may need to create two Circle Maps, two Bubble Maps, etc before making the Double Bubble Map.
The Double Bubble Map can be used in place of the Venn Diagram, especially when focusing on the differences between two things.The Venn Diagram should continue to be used in math for set theory.

For the BRACE MAP
What is the name of the whole object? What are the major physical parts of the object? What sources did you use to identify the whole and its parts?
The Brace Map is for the structural analysis of a concrete object. These maps almost always use nouns to name the parts of an object.
The Brace Map is often confused with a Tree Map. Remember that the Brace Map identifies “parts of” something. The Tree Map identifies “kinds of” things.

For the FLOW MAP
What is the name of the event or sequence? What are the stages of each event? What prior knowledge and/or experiences influence your understanding about this processes or series of events?
A Flow Map can be used to show sequences, steps, comparisons or degrees. The Flow Map can be drawn from left to right, in a cycle, or in a rising and falling action form as long as each box is connected to another using an arrow.
The sub-stages in the Flow Map must also be in a sequence, not just a list of details.

Page 65NOTE MAKING GUIDE
What are the causes and effects of this event? Where did you get your information? Did a specific time period influence the causes and/or effects?
The Multi-Flow Map helps students identify the causes and effects of an event. When constructing the map, always focus first on the event. The causes and effects do not have to balance. Students may also construct a one-sided Multi-Flow.
The event is the key to this map. It must be a “happening.” The event should be “the flooding of the Nile” instead of just “the Nile.”
