Research Question Mindmap Experiment
I asked myself, what if these questions were in an easy-to-glance-at-format, with the big ideas clearly shown, and perhaps linked in an organic way? What if the questions looked like a conversation instead of a survey? So I created a branching mind map of the same concepts in my original list. After a few false starts, I focused on three things:
- Use one- or two-word concepts, not full sentences
- De-emphasize the details, since they’re there as reminders only
- Create a landscape with color and placement that us visual thinkers can internalize easily
Here’s (structurally) what it looks like right now:
Over the next two weeks my team will using it as a reference during our interviews. It’s definitely not meant to be a stand-alone document, but I’m interested in seeing how it helps us. It might even be good as a worksheet to jot down notes, or a review tool to document where the conversation went. What do you think?
