The Logical Mind Map is directly connected to stereotypes. The Logical mind map comprises of solely stereotype words. Which means that every word or image that is put within the mind map is directly related to the central subject through its links.
• It is a concise way of listing and categorizing a mass of information.
• The relationship between each word will help trigger memories and greatly reduce the amount of note taking and assist in the understanding of the subject.
• The more interesting the mind map the greater the interest that the on looker will have in the information.
• The usage of images along side with word will again create interest for the mind map as well as assist in triggering a memory of the subject.

Week 6 Stereotype and Mind Map
Image from http://www.mindmapart.com/evaluating-client-reality-mind-map-adam-sicinski/
Mr Radzi gave the lecture about stereotype, logical and creative mind-map.
The stereotype is the very first impression on something in your mind. Mr Radzi gave the explanation by playing game. He first wrote the answer on 2 paper and then ask the question to see whether they are same or not. The stereotype on anything in our mind can kill our creativity. We should avoid stereotype because they are not special and unit, they have been used for thousands time. BUT, we must know the stereotype well so that we can avoid.
Mr Radzi have show us many examples of creative and logical mind map. In order to come out a very creative mind map, you have to use some elements. For examples, the color, graphic images, arrow, font size, etc.
The logical mind map is basically for gathering the information about the subject you want to study. Any information that collected are usually very basic and tend to stereotype.
The Evaluating Reality Mind Map (above mind map) helps guide Life Coaches in evaluating their client’s current reality and circumstances. The Mind Map first presents a series of questions that the Life Coach asks their client in order to help them get a better understanding of their current behavior. Once the client’s behavioral patterns have been identified, the Life Coach delves into the client’s Learning Style – helping them to set effective tasks that will naturally motivate the client to achieve their goals and objectives. Furthermore, the Mind Map looks at how a Life Coach can optimize learning for their client during tasks, and concludes with a look at a client’s Success Strategy – what a client does on a daily basis that helps them naturally achieve their goals and objectives.
Week 6 Stereotype and Mind Map
The weekly task is choose 3 keywords from the mortar&pestle mind map which Mr Radzi provided, and think about another 3 keywords which can let you link the mortar and pestle together.
The keywords that i have choose are money, smoke and fashion.
For the first keywords-money--i think of beggar
the beggar can use the pestle to protect himself when attacking by people and then use the mortar to beg for money.
The second keywords-smoke--smoking
imagine a cigarete which will not finish! The pestle will be the magic cigarete in huge size and can't finish, on the other hand, the mortar will be the ash tray.
The last keywords-fashion--trendy
You can be very fashion even though you having flu! The mortar mask will give you a pretty cool style and the pestle tie which make you perfect!

Week 4 Novelty, Creativity, Innovation, Invention
Mr Mustaffa briefed us about the ‘Novelty, Creativity, Innovation and Invention’. Mr Mustaffa asked one question in the class, is your invention ‘creative’ if that is only create for your own good, your hobby or what you like? No.
It’s is simply because we have to inspire by big issues, normally is related to human. We come out the solution or creation, invention which can exactly solve the issues and affect through out the global. Just like the first video that Mr Mustaffa shown us, the hero, Jane Chen who created a warm embrace that saves lives. She was inspired by the baby who was dead because of not enough time send to the hospital which are far far away from their hometown. Because of her invention, many babies was saved.

Week 4 Novelty, Creativity, Innovation, Invention
Defining novelty
Novelty is something which are the very first, original, special while the creativity means the process of creating something new. Innovation is the changing of idea based on the old, exist product, idea, or design, you can say that the innovation is the improvement of invention because the invention is actually creating the new idea.
Novelty can also be define as the quality of being new. It can be divided into 2, subjective and objective novelty, the objective novelty referring to the very and only new idea in the world which did not mention or discover by others yet. On the other hand, the subjective novelty is something as being new by an individual person or a group of person. This idea maybe already being used by others outside the group.
The term innovation is a process turning an idea or improve/upgrade an idea into the practical reality or service which can be accept by the public and they are willing to pay money for that.

Week 3 Creativity - Personal Reflection
What is the creativity?
Creativity is a mental process involving the discovery of new ideas or concepts, or new associations of the existing ideas or concepts, fueled by the process of either conscious or unconscious insight.
Description
Creativity is the ability to see something in a new way, to see and solve problems no one else may know exists, and to engage in mental and physical experiences that are new, unique, or different. Creativity is a critical aspect of a person's life, starting from inside the womb onward through adulthood.
From Human Motivation, 3rd ed., by Robert E. Franken:
Creativity is defined as the tendency to generate or recognize ideas, alternatives, or
possibilities that may be useful in solving problems, communicating with others, and entertaining ourselves and others.
The video above is the professor Ken Robbison’s speech on ‘Do school kill creativity?’ Well, let’s take the example of little girl discovered her talent on dancing. I think not eveyone can discover their own ability or talent in that age, even their parents.
If the school have the right attitude on helping childrens find their own abilty then the problem solved. The school should provide every possible choices according to different child but not keep telling the children you must study in order to survive!

Mr Yap's lecture was fun and interesting, i like the way he gave lecture.
