'''Creative Problem Solving''' "involves breaking down a problem to understand it, generating ideas to [[Problem solving|solve the problem]] and evaluating those ideas to find the most effective solutions. It uses techniques to make the problem solving process engaging and [[Collaboration|collaborative]]."<ref>[https://www.iom.int/sites/g/files/tmzbdl486/files/staff-welfare/creative_problem_solving.pdf Problem solving]</ref>

A mind map is a "visual diagram that helps organize information hierarchically, where a central topic is surrounded by related subtopics, often using images, keywords, and color coding to represent connections and relationships between ideas, allowing for better understanding and recall of information; essentially, it's a way to visually brainstorm and map out complex concepts from a central theme."<ref>[https://www.google.com/search?q=what+is+a+mind+map&sca_esv=2e72d065ef487a51&sxsrf=AHTn8zrpVKapG8uHlz-n2UIOLwKpdvQxOg%3A1737997556275&ei=9LyXZ-LBEP__ptQPjYP1mQc&ved=0ahUKEwjii9m3sZaLAxX_v4kEHY1BPXMQ4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=what+is+a+mind+map&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiEndoYXQgaXMgYSBtaW5kIG1hcDIKECMYgAQYJxiKBTIFEAAYgAQyBRAAGIAEMgYQABgHGB4yBRAAGIAEMgYQABgHGB4yBRAAGIAEMgYQABgHGB4yBRAAGIAEMgUQABiABEj7HlCiDVjWGXABeAGQAQGYAYwBoAGyCaoBBDAuMTC4AQPIAQD4AQGYAgigAsAGwgIKEAAYsAMY1gQYR8ICDRAAGIAEGLADGEMYigXCAgcQABiABBgNwgILEAAYgAQYkQIYigXCAgcQIxixAhgnmAMAiAYBkAYKkgcDMS43oAfrSQ&sclient=gws-wiz-serp What is a mind map?]</ref>
