In studying the powers of the brain we must
focus on the following:

• The different parts of the brain and its functions

• Left and Right Hemisphere Brain Theory

• Whole-Brain Theory

• Mind mapping

The Whole Brain Theory is base on the notion that the entire brain
is active during mental processing, and there is interaction among
various parts during mental processes such as perception and
memory (Basar, 2006).

Mind-mapping is described as a technique where ideas branch from a
central image (Trevino, 2005). Studies found that the mind-mapping
technique enhanced learning by helping students to remember and
understand information (Keles, 2012)
Buzan recommends some steps to follow when
making a mind map:

Create a central idea. Place it at the middle of the paper. Include an image.

Add branches to the map. Main branches are from the central idea but one
can continue to add child branches.

Add keywords using one word per branch.

Color code the branches

Include images.
