Here's a nice summary. Have you seen our \"old\" videos – where we presented many idioms with KAWAs? https:\/\/youtube.com\/playlist?list=PLUE3Qc4yl2oG-yR8_Fr1Gv6F5tNOUjIe7 \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff9900;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNow also available as a package in color, with a black-and-white template, and a blank template for self-design.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does KAWA actually mean?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKAWA, according to Vera F. Birkenbihl, is an acronym and stands for: \u003cstrong\u003eK\u003c\/strong\u003ereative \u003cstrong\u003eA\u003c\/strong\u003eusbeute von \u003cstrong\u003eW\u003c\/strong\u003eort-\u003cstrong\u003eA\u003c\/strong\u003essoziationen (Creative Exploitation of Word Associations). But KAWA is easier to remember. KAWAs can be made on any topic that interests you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow about creating your own KAWA and why does this technique work?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst, write the topic in the center in large letters. By the way, I always use the paper in landscape orientation and draw the letters so that they can be colored later. In our \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/mindmaps-shop.de\/produkte\/unterrichtsmaterial\/der-mindmap-vorlagen-ringblock\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eMindmap Template Ring Block\u003c\/a\u003e, KAWAs are drawn on the white left page. Now, let your thoughts wander and consider what comes to mind about the term and what would be important enough to be written down. The rule of the game is: what you write down must begin with one of the letters in the center. The smaller the term, the fewer letters you have available, and the more you have to think. The lack of letters forces you to think about a topic more intensely. By the way, it's not mandatory to use every letter. And: there is no right or wrong with KAWA. An example: Suppose you want to create a KAWA about your best friend \u003cstrong\u003eEva\u003c\/strong\u003e, then you only have three letters available. But you can use them multiple times. Perhaps \u003cem\u003eE stands for elegant, successful, eloquent\u003c\/em\u003e, for \u003cem\u003eV you find her trustworthy, crazy, and in love\u003c\/em\u003e, and for \u003cem\u003eA you've associated silly and single\u003c\/em\u003e. If your best friend had been named Hannelore, you would, of course, have had more letters available.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrom KAWA to KAGA\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you also incorporate many pictures, your \u003cstrong\u003eKAWA becomes a KAGA\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the G then stands for Grafie Gestaltung (Graphic Design). I often write notes in KAWA form during meetings. It keeps me alert, no matter how unimportant or boring a meeting is. And I catch everything.
