At the start of the map process, there was one thought that kept reoccurring in my head, so I deemed it most beneficial for me to write about. Something that has been laying around in my subconscious the decision to live on or off campus next year. When starting this map I was already leaning towards wanting to be off campus, but this thought process helped me through the steps of feeling reassured by my decision. The words flowed out, as many of my worries had correlations and were a result of each other.
Naturally, many images came into my head during the process of writing out key words. Some of the images have more personal ties, while others are what most viewers would associate with the terms. I thought the use of the negative red and positive green colors associated with “on” and “off” would naturally attract the viewer.
Since I knew I was leaning towards one side, I decided to narrow the process down to the pros and cons of moving off campus. Now knowing and being familiar with most of the terms, I was able to organize the layout in a less confusing manner. The use of sharpie helped project the words off the page.
Becoming more confident in the positives of living off campus, I could also visually see that most of the key words were placed in the pros. Some of the same images appeared, as they were the most frequent image in my mind even by the second map.

Pass- Nice use of color and embellishments. Be careful with your lines being straight– they are supposed to be Curvy Flowing Branches. Also the branches should start out Thick near the center and thin out toward the edges. I’ll let it go this time, but please fix the branches next time. It seems like the mindmap is telling you that there are more pros than cons to living off campus.
