It is also aimed at exploring students' experiences in using mind maps. In this study, 80 students were asked to respond to 2 online surveys; one, prior to the mind map activity and the other after. The findings for the survey prior to the mind map activity showed that, majority of the students are familiar with mind map and are aware that mind map does help them to learn and that most are willing to put in some effort to use mind map for learning purposes. The second survey's findings showed that even though some respondents have pessimistic attitude, generally the response have been positive and well received and some students ask for more guidance and training to be able to master the mind map learning technique. {\^A}{\copyright} 2017 IEEE.}, keywords = {Artificial intelligence; Schematic diagrams; Students; Surveys, Active Learning; Innovative approaches; Mind maps; Online surveys, Engineering education}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85055454791&doi=10.1109\%2fWEEF.2017.8467135&partnerID=40&md5=e4d16616224e6f55c74c629a2b9d7b5a}, isbn = {9781538615232}, author = {Romlie, M.
