In the age of digitalization, visual thinking is becoming increasingly important. Not only are we becoming more familiar with reading images, but also with their interplay with texts. This book demonstrates how visual thinking can inspire students to be inventive. Learning maps created by them can be utilized at various stages of the learning process: not only to illustrate something, but especially to explore and draw conclusions for further learning. It thus presents a comprehensive method that opens up creative pathways of thinking: discovering connections, recognizing problems, developing questions - the creation of learning maps enables a deeper engagement and brings surprising insights to light. Concrete tips and templates assist in the creation of learning maps.
