Stereotype
By the way, what is stereotype???
A stereotype is a commonly held public belief about specific social groups or types of individuals. The concepts of "stereotype" and "prejudice" are often confused with many other different meanings. Stereotypes are standardized and simplified conceptions of groups based on some prior assumptions. Generally speaking, stereotypes are not based on objective truth but rather subjective and sometimes unverifiable content-matter.

From the lesson that I have learn, logical mind map is a diagram which all the things are link together and connect to stereotype directly in order to let us understand more on certain issues in a short period of time. Besides, it also helps to generate and expand new ideas. By looking through a mind map, it does help us to remember and think back on certain things easily just either depend on certain pictures or key words. It is time consuming and can be used particularly in taking notes or doing research.
Meanwhile, from my personal point of view, stereotype do affects peoples' mind by giving out either negative or positive impacts. Stereotype is a sign which brings out special meaning on certain things. For example, the fat and thin, the black and white and so on. It is easier for us to recognize the difference between the complexities of people with the existence of stereotype.
Furthermore, it is also to be said that an ideal mind map should be shaped like the roots of a tree, branching out from the center.
