Abstract

  Mind Mapping is a tool which can help stimulate radiant thinking of our brain. It visualizes information and knowledge and provides a simplified structure of the target knowledge system.

  Senior high is a very important period for students and English is a vital part of it. Thus the function of English review class can not be ignored.

In the first part, the background of studying Mind Mapping is introduced; in the second part, theoretical basis and creation procedures are presented; in the third part, a practical application of Mind Mapping is given; the last part is a conclusion on this article.
