Mind Maps to print and study 

Our friends at Hull University's Disability Services have produced a colourful and highly interesting range of study advice material.   They have creatively applied MIND MAPS to many topics on study advice.   Their colourful use of this method will appeal to many students and greatly improve their studies.   We at the Study Advice Service are so impressed by this body of work that we want to make it accessible to as many students as possible.  Therefore, we have produced the following table that links directly to their website.   Hopefully you too will find these study tips useful.   In order to read this material you will need an Acrobat Reader.   It is FREE to download.
