Worksheet 2.3 Creating a Mind Map of a Publishable Scientific Article

A. Mind Map Creation

Create a mind map on Canva with the central topic “Characteristics of a Publishable Scientific Article.” Develop main branches for the key sections of a scientific article, such as Introduction, Methods/Procedures, Results/Findings, Discussion/Analysis, and References/Citations. For each branch, add general sub-branches highlighting important elements, best practices, or common challenges based on three sources of information: your interviews with authors, reviewers, or journal editors; author guidelines from reputable journals; and sample articles from high-quality, peer-reviewed journals. Organize your mind map clearly, using colors, icons, or other visual elements to enhance readability and structure.

The following is an example of the results of the mind map.

B. Mind Map Share

In the following discussion forum, post the canva link to your mind map.

C. Discussion

Choose one mind map created by another group or student and compare it with your own. Identify at least three similarities, three differences, and two new insights you gained from the comparison. Summarize your findings in a short written report (about 300–400 words) and be ready to share them in class discussion by replying to the post.
