Abstract: This contribution focusses on technologies connected with the graphical representation of knowledge and text content through the generation, creation and organization of important concepts, thoughts or ideas into visual diagrams. Although they already existed in the pre-digital era, with digitalization, mind maps and concept maps have been scrutinized methodologically and the scope of their use has been expanded with respect to function and applicability. For writing, mapping technologies serve both a creative function to develop a pool of interconnected ideas from where to begin writing and a selective and structuring function to organize content during writing. Both kinds of mapping have been developed primarily as learning and thinking tools but can also be used as valuable means of connecting thinking and learning with writing. The contribution shows important developments as well as methodological differentiations and suggests the integration of idea mapping technologies into writing courses at the early undergraduate level, particularly in connection with the teaching of reading, summarizing and synthesizing sources.
