“…Sub-topics and concepts of lesser importance are represented with twigs (sub-nodes) connected to relevant branches. A fully developed mind-map is a hierarchy of linked nodes (Chik, Plimmer & Hosking, 2007). Mind-mapping is a powerful tool to stimulate visual thinking.…”

Idea creation is significant to all disciplines, yet it is even more crucial for entrepreneurs since the process of entrepreneurship requires new and novel ideas in all phases. Ideation should be taught and implemented in an intentional and systematic approach in order to increase the efficiency of idea generation in entrepreneurial activity. Systematic ideation is comprised of a series of steps including observation, building the right ideation team, using multiple thinking methods and idea generation methods together and validating the idea for further improvement. Many of the entrepreneurship programs teach students the process of entrepreneurship after the individual comes forth with an idea, focusing on developing personal skills and business models required for a successful venture. Little attention and focus is dedicated to the initial step of idea creation. Systematic approach to teaching and implementing ideation would fill this gap in entrepreneurship education and field.

“…Currently, many computer software programs for constructing Mind Maps, some of which are three-dimensional, have been developed (Bidarra et al, 2000; Lincke et al, 1997). Research into the creation of Mind Maps using computer software shows that the computer versions of Mind Mapping can be as effective in aiding the learning process as hand-created Mind Mapping, but less effective in other cases (Buisine et al, 2007; Chik et al, 2007; Holland et al, 2004; Jonassen, 1996; Miertschin and Willis, 2007).…”

Mind Mapping has predominantly been used by individuals or collaboratively in groups as a paper-based or computer-generated learning strategy. In an effort to make Mind Mapping kinesthetic, collaborative, and three-dimensional, an innovative pedagogical strategy, termed Physical Webbing, was devised. In the Physical Web activity, groups collaboratively build concrete (physical) representations of content using kinesthetic or participatory manipulatives. The theoretical underpinnings of the Physical Web include the scientific findings on the physicality of learning and Papert's constructionist theory. A case study example of the implementation of the Physical Webbing process delineates a specific application and provides procedures for replication and expansion of the strategy. Qualitative analysis of the attitudinal surveys following the activity provided data regarding students' preference for the Physical Webbing activity over the traditional lecture, acceptance of participatory manipulatives, perceived learning and attitudes towards collaborative kinesthetic three-dimensional Mind Mapping.

“…These methods address sketch understanding problems in their specific domains, but this domain-specific optimization approach cannot be directly applied in the structure understanding of more general, out-of-domain hand-drawn diagrams, such as concept maps. Chik et al [2007] tried to understand pen-based mind-maps by identifying the first node as the central node and then finding subnodes connected to it recursively. Some researchers have investigated sketch understanding methods that can be used more broadly.…”

“…It is acted on offline sketch which is different from concept maps with strokes, however. The pen-based mind-mapping tool by Chik et al [2007] can recognize hand-drawn hierarchical structures and allow the revision of the recognized structure. However, this tool can only handle hierarchical structures and has a strict requirement for the order of objects to be drawn (e.g., a parent node must be drawn before any child node).…”

Concept maps are an important tool to organize, represent, and share knowledge. Building a concept map involves creating text-based concepts and specifying their relationships with line-based links. Current concept map tools usually impose specific task structures for text and link construction, and may increase cognitive burden to generate and interact with concept maps. While pen-based devices (e.g., tablet PCs) offer users more freedom in drawing concept maps with a pen or stylus more naturally, the support for hand-drawn concept map creation and manipulation is still limited, largely due to the lack of methods to recognize the components and structures of hand-drawn concept maps. This article proposes a method to understand hand-drawn concept maps. Our algorithm can extract node blocks, or concept blocks, and link blocks of a hand-drawn concept map by combining dynamic programming and graph partitioning, recognize the text content of each concept node, and build a concept-map structure by relating concepts and links. We also design an algorithm for concept map retrieval based on hand-drawn queries. With our algorithms, we introduce structure-based intelligent manipulation techniques and ink-based retrieval techniques to support the management and modification of hand-drawn concept maps. Results from our evaluation study show high structure recognition accuracy in real time of our method, and good usability of intelligent manipulation and retrieval techniques.
