Conceptual map
A concept map represents a central idea with nodes that are broken down from the global to the particular. In addition, linking words are used in a concept map to clarify the connections that link subordinate ideas to the central or superordinary concept.
The goal of a concept map is to structure the concept you want. The information is arranged in a hierarchical way so that learning is faster by remembering the arrangement of the various elements.
Thus, the use of the concept map is recommended to understand concepts with hierarchical levels such as, for example, the classification of living beings or a sequence of historical events.

Mind map
A mind map differs from a concept map by being a more flexible diagram. Interrelated concepts that arise through spontaneous methods such as brainstorming or brainstorming are used . Related concepts are linked by arms or branches to other ideas, thereby creating a mental logic that helps learning.
The objective of a mind map is to achieve, with the spontaneous relationship of concepts on a topic, learning through familiar and own ways of thinking. In this sense, mind maps are useful for the preparation of a dissertation or for the analysis of a poem or literary work.
