Popis: Mind maps are a powerful technique that enfaces a whole brain learning model mainly oriented to the development of capabilities and strategies. Although we can find individual or group mind maps, in this paper we focused on group maps, because it represents whole group thinking and enhances development of positive inter-personal relationships that promote a suitable coexistence for learning. A qualitative investigation methodology has been used, with an open, auto-reported questionnaire about the experience of learning with mind maps. The sample has been composed of 140 students from second grade of Primary Education that were studied during courses 2006-2007 and 2007-2008. Results encourage three cores linked to group dynamic as an expression of social awareness: interaction, group working and integration.
