All of these things promote linear thinking and the idea of mind mapping is to think creatively and in a non-linear manner. Most students find it useful to turn their page on the side and do a mind map in "landscape" style. J. D. Novak of Cornell University in the early 1980's. It was derived from Ausubel's learning theory which places central emphasis on the influence of students' prior knowledge on subsequent meaningful learning. Like the other techniques in this section, "the most important single factor influencing learning is what the learner already knows. Thus meaningful learning results when a person consciously and explicitly ties new knowledge to relevant concepts they already possess. Greek philosophers would make long speeches in front of big audiences, and you need to remember to buy milk, concepts do not exist in isolation. Concept map is a device for representing the conceptual structure of a subject discipline in a two dimensional form which is analogous to a road map.

Concept maps are diagrammatic representations which show meaningful relationships between concepts in the form of propositions. Propositions are two or more concept labels linked by words which provide information on relationships or describing connections between concepts.A concept map can be considered as somewhat similar to a spider chart, an organization chart or a flow diagram.
