By the way, I always use the paper horizontally for this. In our mind map template pad, KAWAs are drawn on the left white page. Now you let your thoughts wander and consider what comes to mind regarding the term and what is important to write down. The difficulty: what is written down must begin with one of the letters in the middle. The smaller the term, the fewer letters you have available and the more you have to think. Here, it is the lack of letters that makes you think more deeply about a topic than an ABC list does. The goal should be to find a suitable term for each letter. Suppose you want to create a KAWA about your best friend Eva, then you only have three letters available. However, you can use these multiple times. Perhaps E stands for elegant, successful, eloquent; for V, you find her trustworthy, crazy, and in love; and for A, you associated goofy and single. If your best friend had been named Hannelore, you would have had more letters available, of course. I often take notes in KAWA form during meetings myself. It keeps me awake, no matter how unimportant or boring a meeting is. And you catch everything. Below you can see some of my KAWAs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Akademie für Lernmethoden","offers":[{"title":"A3 paper size","offer_id":55734830530943,"sku":"KAWA-A3-0021","price":8.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"A5 paper size 300g","offer_id":55734830563711,"sku":"KAWA-A5-0021","price":7.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"A4 paper size","offer_id":55734830596479,"sku":"KAWA-A4-0021","price":7.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"PDF Color Download","offer_id":55734830629247,"sku":"KAWA-PDF-0021","price":6.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Software Copy Template Download","offer_id":55734830662015,"sku":"KAWA-SW-0021","price":6.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"PDF color and B\u0026W as a small download package - with copy license","offer_id":55734830694783,"sku":"KAWA-Paket-0021","price":9.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0929\/3404\/6079\/files\/KAWA_Weltstadt_mockup-e1605523310234.jpg?v=1753975568"},{"product_id":"kawa-zum-thema-erdkundeatlas","title":"KAWA on the topic of Geography Atlas","description":"\u003ch1 data-start=\"306\" data-end=\"332\"\u003e🌍 KAWA: Geography Atlas\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"333\" data-end=\"390\"\u003eDiscover the world with words, images, and associations\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-start=\"392\" data-end=\"425\"\u003e💡 Did you know that…\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"426\" data-end=\"727\"\u003e…a geography atlas doesn't just contain maps, but is \u003cstrong data-start=\"488\" data-end=\"529\"\u003ea visual representation of our planet\u003c\/strong\u003e?
