CAPM Practice: Demonstrate an understanding of common problem-solving tools and techniques

A mind map is a visual representation of information organized around a central concept, with branches representing related ideas, subtopics, and connections. It is widely used for brainstorming, note-taking, planning, and problem exploration.

**Why not A:** A fishbone diagram (also called an Ishikawa or cause-and-effect diagram) organizes potential causes of a problem into categories. It has a central line with branches representing cause categories, not a central topic with radiating subtopics and ideas.

**Why not B:** An affinity diagram groups large amounts of ideas or data into natural categories based on their relationships. It does not show a central topic with radiating branches; instead, it clusters related items into groups.

**Why not D:** A network diagram shows the logical relationships and dependencies between project activities. It displays task sequences and paths, not a central concept with radiating subtopics for brainstorming or idea exploration.
